    Left wing populists threaten the oligarchs. Right wing populists don’t. It’s really that simple. The Democratic establishment straight up prefers Trump to Bernie.

      Trump is an idiot who looks good to run against. When Trump was gaining ground, donations went up. When Roe v. Wade was abolished, donations went up.

      Why have a candidate who wants to help people and can defeat Trump when the money keeps pouring in so you can leave the country if he ever gets “too much”.
