      He’s moving heaven and Earth to block one time 5% tax on billionaires. Fuck this asshole. I can’t believe he actually thinks he should be the president of the United States. What a joke.

      I’m also really flabbergasted by the fucking dipshit so-called “progressives” who were thinking that the billionaire Steyer was the heir apparent for governor of California.

    I’ve been wondering what the democratic party stands for lately. I guess I got my answer. No taxes on billionaires.

    This is shocking behavior from Greasy Gavin, a man who amplified and legitimatized fascist voices like Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon on his podcast without any meaningful pushback. I’m sure they, and the billionaires, appreciate his patronage.

    Do not vote for this motherfucker, and also understand that if he’s successful killing the billionaire tax and becomes the Dem nominee for POTUS, this shit will sink his candidacy. (Not that it matters, as his personal wealth will be secure and have grown significantly.)

      The VBNMW trash will overlook the Kirk thing, the billionaire tax thing, all of it. ‘Most important election’ bullshit
