@rbreich The parallels with the Weimar Republic continue. The Junkers just KNEW they could control that buffoon Hitler after he gave them everything they wanted.
EXACTLY. There is an extremely limited number of billionaires who give a shit about anything except whatever will get them "more". Never forget that to the 1%, the rest of us are just in the way; vermin to be owned, controlled or exterminated. The criminal justice system works for them, and they're looking to fully own the government and courts before this is over.
On the plus side, anyone who gets a billionaire "endorsement" risks triggering red flags. Even for MAGAts.
@rbreich billionaires have no truck with democracy as it is one person, one vote and they prefer it like it actually is: Where they get to buy influence, and a hearing for what they want, making them even more money.
There is no true democracy as long as there is no real control over money donations to politicians, as it is now in the US and U.K.
@rbreich No words, so a bunch of excessively Rich people got together and will try and Destroy our country. When they do they Will Not be the ones Suffering..
@rbreich Irony is dead - look at the FT headline below ;)) AND #stephenschwartzman guy whose name is on the NYPL building supports Presidential candidate and Party that loves BANNING BOOKS. Irony is DEAD. #blackstone Would love someone in the press to follow this up. How does #nypl feel about that?
@rbreich
Given that there is at least one documented instance of trump offering quid pro quo’s for large financial contributions, Schwarzman may be getting more than just tax cuts.
America is for sale by trump
