Summary
Progressives criticized the attendance of billionaires like Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos at Donald Trump’s inauguration, labeling them “billionaires’ row” and emblematic of an administration prioritizing the wealthy.
Critics argue the inauguration, funded by over $200 million in corporate and lobbyist donations, signals a pro-billionaire agenda.
Trump’s proposed Cabinet includes 13 billionaires, with a combined net worth of over $460 billion, and aims to push tax cuts for the rich.
Bernie Sanders and other progressives warn against “government by the billionaires, for the billionaires.”
I’ve been dragging my progressive ass to vote for two and half decades and have fuck all to show for it
You dont have fuck all. We have a nascent Nazi America finally out of the womb. Thats certainly… something…
Oh yes, I forgot about negative values.
Fascist, not Nazi as nobody is looking to create the ubermensch. We will be more like Spain or Italy than Nazi Germany.
Centrists do not and have never cared about how you vote; they just don’t want any criticism as they move to the right.
It’s more likely that the person making that claim never stopped to realize there cannot be wnough progressives to blow the race for anyone. It wasn’t as if Trump won by a handful of votes. 60 million didnt show up to vote and I would be floored if 5% of the number would be progressives
