Another ultra-wealthy liberal Democrat, with all of his wealth tax protected through various trusts, who loves to tell entrepreneurs how they’re not paying their “fair share”. If the socialist revolution ever came to America in all its glory, iconic families like the Kennedys, Rockefellers and Duponts would be the first to face the guillotine. There were wealthy do-gooders in revolutionary France who also mistakenly thought that they would escape the wrath of the socialist mob because of their good intentions.

Louis Philippe Joseph d’Orléans (13 April 1747, – 6 November 1793) commonly known as Philippe, was a member of a cadet branch of the House of Bourbon, the ruling dynasty of France. He actively supported the French Revolution and adopted the name Philippe Égalité, but was nonetheless guillotined during the Reign of Terror.
