Billionaire Democrats advocate for understanding: Not all billionaires are evil


If there’s one thing Democrats hate hate hate, it’s those evil, greedy billionaires ruining the country for everybody else!

Just witness socialist screecher Bernie Sanders railing against them at the DNC, with a heavy-breathing speech about how we need an economy that works for everyone, something that Donald Trump — himself an evil billionaire — can’t deliver.

Except that, right after Bernie, hard-left Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker came out to brag about how rich he was — flashing his inherited wealth (about $3.5 billion worth, specifically) with a claim he’s richer than Trump.

Huh?

And it’s not like billionaires were absent on other nights, either.

Media magnate Oprah Winfrey came out to rail against Trump — and Oprah’s worth around $3 billion (though she’s self-made, unlike Pritzker).

We thought Dems were supposed to stand up for the little guy, not rep fat cats totally insulated by their wealth from the everyday problems afflicting everyday Americans.
