Another data point (if you needed one) that republicans and billionaires only give a shit about something when it affects them personally.

Illegal deportations - not their problem

threats to journalists - not their problem

dehumanizing specific groups of people - not their problem

thousands of federal employees losing their jobs overnight - not their problem

defying constitutional amendments - not their problem

Fuck with their ability to hoard more money - Shit we need to do something!

Are they really, though? Or are they just reading the room and pretending to give a shit while buying the dip so they won't get Luigi'd?

My enemy's enemy is not necessarily my friend.

Billionaires have always turned on Trump, slightly more than underage girls.

Billionaires suddenly remember why they always backed the Democrats which kept trickling down the absolute bare minimum (even less actually) to the poors, instead of the Fascist which collapses the entire economy by sending everything to the rich.

First they came for social safety nets, and I helped them along, for that's more money in my pocket

Then, they came for the minimum wage worker, and I helped them along, for that's more money in my pocket

Then they came for the forests, trees and all natural things, and I helped them along, for that's more money in my pocket

And when they finally came for the stocks and unregulated securities and offshore accounts, there was no one left to defend me

We will severely damage our reputation with the rest of the world that will take years and potentially decades to rehabilitat

Awesome, so a democrat cannot fix it in 4 years and the population will vote for an idiot again. Endless circle of stupidity...

At the billionaires lair..."Hey guys! Let's release a presser saying how we don't like Trump!" Everyone starts laughing and saying things like "Ooohh! Those righty's and lefty's heads will explode!".

Billionaires actually need to fucking go. My whole life there has been this hypothetical question of "what if billionaires actually used their money for good" along with this quiet acceptance by society that it'll never actually happen.

But now, as it turns out, not only are they doing nothing good for the world with their wealth but they actually actively use their wealth to buy up all the news organisations, push misinformation, prop up right wingers and inflict misery onto everyone.

I think it's great that they're starting to turn on the orange painted clown with the comically large tie but that's not because of his desire to hurt everyone that isn't a white cis male and push hate, nope, that's exactly what these fucking cunts wanted. It's just that he's a bit more fucking stupid than they bargained for now and now they're numbers are going down. How awful for them.

Fuck them. I hope that there's nothing but guillotines and rope in their futures.

Eat a dick, Bill.

They're jealous because only one billionaire got to penetrate the holy inner Trump circle, like a sick South African sperm crossing into the diseased MAGA ovum, to fuck with federal regulators and help his own businesses.

Right, of course they are. The problem is that this was always their strategy. Too many opportunities to make money and seize power, right? The chaos and lawlessness is good for that.

For example, SCOTUS threw out Chevron last year, so it's harder to enforce environmental regulations. Easy money. The labor oversight committees, the pro-consumer committees, those have all been gutted. Easy money. Even if they're rebuilt, that's another chance to game the system.

Too little too late.

Greed is one hell of a drug.

Doesn't make up for the fact they are his people

I think this is fake news.

They’re all millionaires now.

SIGN OF THE REVOLUTION!

Good, he needs to face some form of consequences
