From Daily Kos: Trump parties with billionaires while Biden and Bernie unite
By ALDOUS J. PENNYFARTHING
Ahead of Donald Trump’s Saturday rager for his billionaire buds, the Biden campaign released a video—with a fully on-board Sen. Bernie Sanders—showing just the sort of thing that will happen there. Plenty of posh posteriors are certain to be smooched, but you’re unlikely to see many red-hatted MAGA Americans begging Trump to sign their chest—unless Marjorie Taylor Greene somehow gets in.
Trump seems to attract two natural constituencies: billionaires and bigots. With a portion of the money they find in their couch cushions, billionaires are buying tax cuts, government deregulation, and all the usual trappings of crony capitalism. The bigots, on the other hand, are downgrading to slightly expired, off-brand lunch meats so they can load up on Trump’s golden sneakers, meme stocks, and tricked-out Bibles, complete with a foreword by Kid Rock and a hollowed-out section for smuggling Corn Nuts into church. (It’s where the chapter on false idols used to be, no biggie.)
