Who are the Oligarchs?

Democrats are on a tear throwing out accusations of a Republican Oligarchy.

Do they not realize that of the top 10 billionaires in the U.S. only Musk is no
longer a Democrat? So are the other 9 the Oligarchs? They have had much
more power than Musk.

Do you know that over his career George Soros has donated 22 billion to the left?
He by far tops the list of all time donors, and Biden honored him for it, by giving him
the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

This sounds more like an Oligarchy to me.

Warren Buffet
Bill Gates
Paul Allen
Steve Ballmer
George Soros
Alex Soros
Mark Zuckerberg
Mark Cuban
Oprah Winfrey

@BizSuitStacy replace Dems with politicians and I agree .

@BizSuitStacy But these billionaires are not in government and exert no influence over government, so they cannot be oligarchs.

Musk does and is.

@BizSuitStacy Musk was on that list at one time, and the Democrats loved him.
It shows how fast they can turn on a person.

@BizSuitStacy Look at the dictionary definition of oligarchy before digging yourself further into a hole. As I have pointed out elsewhere on this post, the direct political donations Soros has made over the past three decades are a fraction of what Musk has made to Trump in the past year. They did not result in a change of government. And they certainly did not buy him the opportunity to eviscerate state regulators to his personal benefit as Musk has now done.

Have any of those other people you list been able to buy influence and favour to the same extent as Musk over the past year?

@SunshineGirl Your comment " Soros has made over the past three decades are a fraction
of what Musk has made to Trump in the past year." you may be right for this year alone,
but Soros has been giving far more to Democrats over the years 22 billion total.

He has been helping get radical judges and DA's in place since Obama. ( very smart )

The influence and money is far more prevalent in the DNC. Trump is one of the few Presidents
that does not need money like your rank-and-file Democrats hoping to get rich in politics.
