    The billionaires would have pushed a different candidate and Trump would have never been elected. The ads are one thing, but the reporting is the important part. If the newspapers and networks had focussed on another candidate, that candidate would have won.

      That’s just restating your conclusion, not explaining why. What on earth have oligarchs and plutocrats to fear from the russian oligarchy form of government being installed in the USA by putin’s man trump? Further wealth? Uncurbed power and influence? No, they fear none of this. Consequences are for the little people.

        How do billionaires have influence on Trump if he is installed by Putin? They already have uncurbed power. They would lose that if Putin got involved.

        In Europe, Putin would love to sell gas, as do American billionaires. Only one can have the profits or they have to share.

          I love how hard you try to convince me of things that I know you know that I know are false.

          You started off “but when did I ever day anything incorrect?” by now it’s just one big bullshit factory!

          Which part of tax breaks for rich people are you struggling to understand?
