568m vs 127m. Trump is the billionaire candidate. Not even counting the in-kind endorsement value of WaPo and LA Times pointedly not endorsing. This is a bit like the Magna Carta in reverse unfolding. Feudal oligarchs cartelizing to unshackle a de facto monarch rather than constrain him. 🧐 Robin Hood story told today would be a yeoman cowboy in a red truck stealing from the middle class to give to the rich.

You can’t not be amused by this funhouse mirror history unfolding. Even if you belong to the villainous Professional Managerial Class like me.
