      Yep. They’ve been enacting their “dollars equal votes” agenda since the 70s, and finally got it fully implemented, after decades of yo-yoing corporate/wealthy wants vs plurality rights and policy needs. The wealthy have always opted for profits over the greater good, and this President even alluded to knowing it when he was asked as a much younger man which party he’d run for as President and he said republican because their voters are stupid. he knows the conservative machine is a con game that only grind up rubes to increase profits at the expense of the nation and general well being of the future.
