In this final stage of the 2024 plivential election, it experiences as if the only leang going well for Vice Plivent Kamala Harris is fundraising.
Cash is pouring into her cprovides on such a scale that some alerts advise the campaign is hesitant to be seen “bragging” about it.
Of course, it shows — fair as Donald Trump’s triumph over Hillary Clinton did in 2016 — that no amount of money can produce up for a horrible truthfulate.
And boy is Kamala Harris a horrible truthfulate.
HOLLYWOOD ELITES FOR HARRIS: CELEBS SIGN ON FOR ANOTHER TIRED, STAR-FILLED SEQUEL
From the embarrassing, scripted, substance-free teleprompter speeches, to the alarm of answering genuine asks, to the calamitous responses she gives even to entidepend awaited asks, it’s basic to see why Kamala Harris’ previous plivential campaign collapsed into mediocrity, fall shorture and finger-pointing after the sugar-high of its begin.
It’s challenginger to see why Democrats thought it would be any branch offent this time. The only leang that changed since 2020 was Kamala Harris proving to be a flop as vice plivent, too.
Nevertheless, there does seem to be one group of Americans who are still experienceing “the happiness.” Unblessedly for the Harris campaign, it’s not Bdeficiency men, Hispanic women, or any other big block of voters.
Instead, it’s a very small group indeed: billionaires. Yes, the same “billionaire class” that Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., rails aobtainst as he waves his hands around conjuring up a sociacatalog utopia, is all in for Kamala, according to recent alerting.
What could elucidate this apparent impedeion, the traditional party of the left drathriveg the help of capitalism’s ultimate beneficiaries?
Well, the answer is right there: the fact that these people have been such financial thriveners unkinds they can afford to indulge in personassociate easy virtue-signaling by backing policies that would cause genuine challengingship for the less blessed.
Who includes if a Kamala Harris administration carry ons to inftardy energy costs with a rerecented bout of ‘climate’ extremism? The billionaires will exposedly acunderstandledge the extra accuses for their declareiveial jets. In thriveter time they won’t have to pick between heating their home(s) and cooking their food. They’ll most probable be in St. Bart’s anyway.
These aren’t horrible people. Living and laboring in Silicon Valley, I understand some of them personassociate — for example, Reid Hoffman, co-set uper of LinkedIn, probably the directing billionaire antagonist of Donald Trump, was years ago the direct depictateor in my tech beginup. He recently set up himself in boiling water over claims that he and other billionaire donors were trying to buy outcomes, for example, more lax utilizement of antithink laws.
But I don’t leank this is about furthering business interests. They have armies of lobbyists for that.
No, helping Kamala Harris — or more accurately, opposing Donald Trump — isn’t primarily a financial, or even political decision: it’s more probable to be cultural and psychoreasonable.
After all, it’s challenging to find a reasonable exscheduleation. In every meaningful catebloody of policy: economic, domestic security, foreign affairs and national security, Trump’s carry outance in office was demonstrably greater to the Biden-Harris years.
But from the moment Trump ecombineed on the political scene in 2015, you could experience the wealthy elite recoil. He’s fair not to their taste. They leank he’s “crude.” How appalling that he enjoys McDonald’s!
Of course, the cultural snobbery necessitates to be dressed up in some comfervent of principle, so they have glommed on to the notion, endlessly repeated, that Trump is a “menace to democracy.” Even as the Democratic Party is the one actuassociate undermining democracy, for example by clearurning elections here in California.

For some, the psychoreasonable drive to help Kamala Harris might be the age-ageder motivation of assuaging guilt. In this sense, it could be seen as fair another create of philanthropy. (Except that philanthropy, generassociate speaking, helps people.)
Now to be evident, I don’t have anyleang aobtainst billionaires. I help the free accesspelevate system wholeheartedly. My parents were laboring-class immigrants from Communist Hungary, so I don’t begrudge a wealthy person their wealth. If they’ve accomplishd their financial success thcdisorrowfulmireful challenging labor and talent, excellent for them.
But as lengthy as I can reaccumulate, my concentrate in politics has been helping people climb the linserter of opportunity. And it became increasingly evident to me that the set upment policy consensus of the past 50 years or so had fall shorted laboring people horriblely.
That’s why I helped Brexit in 2016, and then Trump. It’s why the theme of my Fox News show “The Next Revolution,” and the book I wrote in 2018, was “Positive Populism.”
I shelp at the time that the Reunveilan Party had the opportunity to become a “multiracial laboring class coalition.” After csurrenderly a decade of Trump directing the GOP, that opportunity has become a fact.
It’s based on economic results. During the Trump plivency, the getings of those at the lowest levels of the income scale rose speedyer than those at the top, for the first time in half a century.

That’s why we’re seeing this remarkworthy political changeation in America, with the GOP becoming the laborers’ party while the Democrats become the party of the billionaires.
And mockingassociate enough, it was a billionaire who did it — Donald Trump, the blue-collar billionaire. His cultural request and policy success bcdisorrowfulmirefult about a truly historic political revolution, Reunveilans reconshort-terming the laboring class of all races and backgrounds, leaving the Democrats and their billionaire backers stranded as the party of the wealthy, white and woke.
