"There's no such thing as a rich Democrat." Thoughts on this quote?

[Kingofkings1992]

Absolute truth 💯

Some truth, but oversimplified

Absolute horseshit

[goaded]

"Non-partisan", but which party is more likely to implement their goals? (Probably not going to really happen until the "Rotating Villains" in the Democratic party are purged, but at least they pretend to care.)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patriotic_Millionaires

"Patriotic Millionaires is a nonpartisan organization[1] of Americans with high net worth who promote the restructuring of the American tax system so that wealthy people pay a greater share of their income in taxes. Patriotic Millionaires was founded in 2010 by Erica Payne to advocate for expiration of the Bush tax cuts. Qualification for membership requires either $1 million in annual income, or more than $5 million in assets.

Some notable members include Lawrence Lessig, Jeffrey Gural, Roberta Kaplan, Chuck Collins, George Zimmer, Norman Lear, Whitney Tilson, and Abigail Disney.

Patriotic Millionaires support a higher minimum wage, a progressive tax system, closing tax loopholes, and reducing the influence of money in politics through campaign finance reform. In addition to opposing the Bush tax cuts, the group opposed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The group supports a reduction in economic inequality. Members of the group believe that concentration of wealth is "destabilizing" and can lead to violence."

It's the opposite. Democrats are much better with money. Take a look at the average credit score by state. Red states have the lowest credit scores.

[goaded]

Rich people don't need credit scores.

[BonzoInBitburg]

@goaded Whether you need one or not, you have one.

Democratic governor of Illinois for one Prickster who is the heir to the Hilton Hotel founder who has many billions of dollars for one.

Great wealth isn't driven by political party affiliation

[supercutebutt]

False. I’m an extraordinarily wealthy moderate Democrat. Fortunately, I pay my taxes and give to charity, unlike filthy Republicans.

[Kingofkings1992]

Sure 👍

[supercutebutt]

It’s true, my cognitively challenged friend.

[Kingofkings1992]

You are good for laughs, but not much else

[Kingofkings1992]

Many Republicans give to charity, you goof

[supercutebutt]

Please be nice to me. It's Easter. 🐣

[Kingofkings1992]

Happy Easter

[Kingofkings1992]

I thought you were atheist just like me, what does Easter matter you?

[supercutebutt]

Well, it’s still a holiday. I am forced to celebrate it, so you should be nice.

[Zack-Bann]

Considering how hypocritical they are I would say too many of them are rich


Rich people play democrat commies to win the love of the public when they’re fleecing them and leaving them holding the bag


Happens far too often

[exitseven]

It may have been true 50 years ago but today all the rich Hollywood types and tech billionaires are all democrats.

Years ago democrats were the party of the working class. Today they are the party of the non working class

[DryGermanGuy]

This weird gang of techbros (Musk, Zuckerberg, Thiel...) support Trump.

[exitseven]

@DryGermanGuy They support Trump now that he is president except for Elon. Elon was not born here so from his perspective America is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

[loveslongnails]

Really? LOL So now you're speaking for Elon too? LMAO He surely thinks it was one the EASIEST grifts he ever had. He financed Trump to the tune of $250 million and in exchange got contracts and cash in the Billions.

You're sooo smart when it comes to world politics and analyzing Trump's behavior and P-2025. Can't imagine how he didn't appoint you head of some department? LOL

[exitseven]

@loveslongnails I did not want that. I like being his special advisor.

[loveslongnails]

Oh, you're special all right. LOL

[IamRight]

@exitseven you are correct like usual

[exitseven]

@loveslongnails I am very special. President Trump appreciates my opinions from an average American.

[loveslongnails]

Trump doesn't know you exist. LOL You're too poor and insignificant to matter. The only thing he knows about you is that he loves uneducated people. You're the hamster on his little treadmill, nothing more. When you have your heart attack, you'll fall off the wheel unnoticed by him or anyone in his world.

[exitseven]

@loveslongnails I have 2 MS degrees. how many do you have?

[loveslongnails]

Degrees don't mean shit to me. Lots of people with degrees don't know their ass from a hole in the ground, and you're proof of that since you're a blind Trump supporter. You can't think critically enough to know you're being lied to and grifted, so what good are your degrees other than getting you hired to perform your job?

You're exactly who George Carlin was talking about when he said " ... just smart enough to run the machines and stupid enough to believe whatever they tell you".

[exitseven]

@loveslongnails says the person with zero credentials.

[loveslongnails]

LMAO. I have degrees in Education and Statistics, something that you could use a basic understanding of, but so what? More importantly, I can analyze behavior and discern fact from fiction, something you can not do. So as I said, your degrees got you hired, but you're a Trumper, so you obviously can only do what Carlin pointed out.

By the way, if you didn't the memory of a mosquito, you'd remember that I told you this months ago, but that's typical of an echo box.

[NaultD]

Even hardcore socialist would say there will be wealthy socialist. The hard cut off would be a billion dollars of assets.

[Kaneki05]

Aye, a socialist can be against the system but still use it because it's illogical to deprive yourself of wealth and it's the system we currently are in and that's not changing sadly, furthermore you can use that wealth to help others while still keeping yourself rich.

[AviatorTom]

There are many examples of rich Democrats: Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden, Ilhan Omar. How about the fact that more billionaires contributed to Kamala thanto Trump?

[Kaneki05]

That's obviously not true. Elites be on both sides.

[beefcakebradybatson]

Most Democrats are FAR WEALTHIER than most REPIGLIKSCUM !!!

[Kingofkings1992]

False. People who have assets and have a general sense of responsibility, and how the world works usually lean towards the right

[beefcakebradybatson]

The average Democratic voter makes five-fold the salary of the typical REPIGLIKSCUM !!

[Kingofkings1992]

Please be sure to vote. Percentages matter 😁

[strawberryapple]
