Bill Gates is a reliable donor to Democrat politicians. But he has just made a fatal misstep. When the Revolution comes, Gates will now be one of the first to the guillotine.

Gates’ wealth is safe...he makes little income.

Until these socialists go after wealth and not income, they are not serious about redistribution.

That will absolutely be the next step. There are already some Democrats in Congress talking about seizing IRAs, and replacing them with Treasury notes (in other words, with IOUs).

And Gates should worry about more than just that. Socialists just LOVE to nationalize industries. And Microsoft is an industry.

He has already threatened to move jobs to Vancouver if Congress doesn’t give him H-1B coolies (so they did); I’m sure he’d dodge taxes.

At one time Bill Gates didn’t give to politics The Clinton’s instructed him of the error in his ways. Protection money is err insurance premiums.

Gates and the uber wealthy do not have IRAs or 401Ks. Confiscate all of those.

Socialists only confiscate the wealth,/assets of those who are not party loyalists.

There won’t be a revolution in this country. Way too many people have been cut in. Trump made real sure of that.

Bill Gates, sorry but you’re incorrect. Her picture is out of focus. Very much out of focus...

What do you mean by, “Trump made real sure of that.”
