Exactly. All these folks see is a huge target market when they look at conservatives, we are the ‘mark’.

Now small donors are one of the biggest problems for democracy

Imagine the cognitive dissonance involved in order to utter such a statement.

Poor Jonah!

Still plagued with nightmares of all those pesky, delusional little people with their antiquated notions of freedom, democracy and the US Constitution still being allowed to vote.....

Remarkable arrogance from a man who we wouldn’t even know existed, if not for Bill Clinton’s semen stain on a blue dress.

"Jonah Goldberg claims ‘small donors’ are a big problem ‘for democracy’"

"Of the people, by the people, for the people." And this isn't a democracy rube, it's a Republic.

The D-word appears nowhere in the US Constitution.

And then there’s Woodrow Wilson’s take on what democracy is:
… (I)t is very clear that in fundamental theory, socialism and democracy are almost, if not quite, one and the same. They both rest at bottom upon the absolute right of the community to determine its own destiny and that of its members. Men as communities are supreme over men as individuals. …
So we have had over a century of being at the mercy of politicians that regard democracy and socialism as being the same thing—to wit, authoritarian forms of government that do not recognize the individual and regard rights as given by government.

We are supposed to be a Constitutional Republic with democratic traditions. Not a lynch mob!

Why does he care? It’s going towards paying his legal bills anyway.

Big donors want things from the government.

Small donors may actually care about the country and its future.

As time goes on, it becomes so much easier to see people’s motivations. I can’t believe that I ever thought someone this stupid was a good, patriotic American.

In retrospect, this guy is probably a loosely connected spy for Israel. He supported the Republicans when they wanted to spend American blood and treasure on behalf of Israel. Now he supports Democrats when they spill American blood and treasure.

Additionally, he is the one who told his mother to suggest Linda Tripp should record her calls with Lewinsky. Sexual blackmail is a long standing Mossad technique. It is also obviously what Jeffery Epstein and Maxwell were doing for them.

I think it might be the bankers west of the West Bank.

I’m sure GOLDBERG would be happy having only money from SOROS, ZUCKERBERG, BANKMAN-FRIED, FINK, RUBIN, WEINSTEIN, EPSTEIN, STERN, GREENBERG, COHEN, and all those with similar names financing and controlling everything with no one named Anderson, Peterson, Hanson, Johnson, Smith, Wilson, Jolly, etc., allowed.
Under Jewish Law, Jonah isn't Jewish as his mother was Episcopalian. His father was. His brother, Joshua, who I personally knew, converted and was a practicing Jew.

Soros is a second generation atheist and antisemite, who funds antisemitic and anti-Zionist orgs. Zuckerberg is non-praciticing and married to a non-Jew. His kids aren't Jewish. Shall I continue?

BANKMAN-FRIED and LARRY FINK are Jewish, but don't donate to Jewish causes. ESG itself is harmful to Israel and Jews. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/morningstar-meet-esg-goals-devaluing-jews-people-rare-robert-goldberg
Which Rubin?
I know Jews with Jewish non-Jewish names and vice-versa.And people with Jewish sounding names don't control everything. If we did, the US would have very different policies. LEftists, many of whom are nominal Jews or had Jewish grandparents, do.
