Republican donors – including those who had said they’d never support Trump again after Jan. 6 — believe the current regulatory climate for businesses is also an existential danger. Kathy Wylde, president and CEO of the Partnership for New York City — a nonprofit organization representing the city’s top business leaders — said Republicans have conveyed to her that they consider that “the threat to capitalism from the Democrats is more concerning than the threat to democracy from Trump.”

    I honestly don’t understand how this is supposed to appease the average Trump voter.

    Like, I get being completely ignorant about politics and the world around you…but how the hell does the average American not look around at their income and expenses and realize that capitalism is fucking them in the ass at every conceivable opportunity.

    Oh, cool, you got a cellphone and a quarter-acre a quarter mile as the crow flies from the mall (5 miles by foot or car though). How’s your student loans doing? When’s the last time you had a colonoscopy/mammogram, and why are you putting it off for so long? How’s the weather? How are the caterpillars? Why haven’t you had kids yet?
