Dover is poor. So prolly not many. And booker has a net worth of 2,000,000 not 2,000,000 sitting in the bank. Many jerseyites are house rich.

Someone should put up republicans wealth information so we can compare.

There is one major difference that would ruin it.

What is that?

The hypocrisy. You see Republicans demanding higher taxes?

If you read the OP there was a reason I didn’t include them.

Not 2 million dollars. Also how many people in Newark would view Corey Booker as very wealthy?

So rich dems want to raise taxes on rich people - which includes higher tax on themselves. Is that hypocrite?

Yes. If they want to pay higher taxes, they are free to do so.

Do you believe that the Republican Multimillionaire care about us?

Lots of poor republicans think so. Very strange.

Do they feel guilty? Nope. They don’t give a ā– ā– ā– ā–  about what people think about it.

Plus they know libs will support them no matter what.

Trump? Yes. In a weird NYC values kind of way.

Do you believe progs do?

Already addressed that in this thread when I said the following:

If there’s one thing I’ve learned following politics over the years is that most politicians are driven by self interests and party interests. It’s ignorance to believe otherwise.

Can’t you say the same about the Republicans. It’s ridiculous to think otherwise.

I don’t believe any of them care about us.

I already addressed this:

That’s what gets them the votes in order to maintain their positions of power, which in turn puts one in a very privileged position.

These positions of power get one into a position to enrich themselves and their families. You see it on both sides.

Rich Republicans get into power without raising taxes on themselves. They actually lower taxes on themselves AND rich Democrats

Also I would say that more conservatives have negative views of Republican politicians than liberals do of Democrat politicians.

Safe statement. There are a number of GOP pols i don’t care for.

Romney, Murkowski quickly come to mind. McCain was securely on that list as well.
