[PJMedia] Wall Street and the DNC have been in bed together like a couple of newlyweds for years now, but the honeymoon might finally end if Senator Elizabeth Warren takes the presidential nomination next year.CNBC's Brian Schwartz reports that "several high-dollar Democratic donors and fundraisers in the business community" plan to "sit out the presidential campaign fundraising cycle" should Warren sit -- must... resist... urge... to... make... sit Indian-style joke -- at the top of the ticket. A private equity executive who wishes to remain anonymous told the network, "You’re in a box because you’re a Democrat and you’re thinking, ’I want to help the party, but she’s going to hurt me, so I’m going to help President Trump'."
Funny how people move in their best intrest instead of the "party"
Warren's proposed "wealth tax," while of dubious constitutionality, threatens to place a 2% tax on the wealth -- not earnings -- of households worth $50 million or more. That's a lot of Wall Street people, it's safe to say.
"Democratic" socialist candidate Bernie Sanders promises an even bigger wealth tax, with a 1% levy on households worth more than $32 million, going all the way up to 8% for fortunes over $10 billion. So far Wall Street doesn't feel as threatened by the prospect of a Bernie candidacy, but with frontrunner Joe Biden sinking in poll after poll, who knows what might happen as the voting starts in Iowa next February.
Biden is done and Ms. Fake is the darling of the regressive left. She can't walk back comments in this day and age and she has lost the Wall Stree doners, the union workers and a good chunk of Middle America. Hence the impeachment push from the Demoncrats
