This guy doesn't get everything right, but at least he recognizes the Demon Rats are all about the money.

He hates Trump, too--but on the 'rats, he nails 'em.

vanity fair doesn’t allow excerpts.

No wonder its sales are down double digit percentage wise.:

We should have a wealth tax like Trump suggested. Stick it to them. They are libs because they can get away with it while living their life as conservatives.

Because they already have theirs and they recognize that the Democrat’s policies are aimed at making upward mobility impossible.

The road to serfdom is being paved by progessive politicians across the globe.

A good friend described this phenomena to me this way:

These people got rich and they don’t want anyone else to have the same opportunity.

Becoming?

They always have been. At least since Wilson, at any rate.

I figured that out a long time ago. 1 percenters are just using the 47 percenters and the riff raff for their own ends under the umbrella of the Democratic Party.

I remember from way back seeing a candidate from the CPUSA on the national ballot. Back in 2008 and 2012, they didn’t run a candidate because the democrats were so close to their goals and views. The communists saw that baraq, Hillary and their party were in line with them and decided not to run a candidate to save their money.

If a wealth tax is imposed, guess who will be paying it.
Not the 1% because they will either write the laws or are closely tied to those who write the laws. They will find ways to exempt themselves.
