I am pretty sure he would be much more in bed with them than Jeb even though Jeb would let Wall Street eat crackers in his bed any time they felt like it. I just think Trump would be like that only way more.

On a side note, who would have thunk that GW would have turned out the be the smart one?

If they thought Bernie was going to win the nomination they would be donating to him. That's just the way it works.

that she's accepting Wall Street money. A true progressive would return that money, or donate it to a worthy cause.

This is why I think Bernie > Hillary: http://www.advocate.com/politics/2015/10/16/bernie-sanders-gives-martin-shkrelis-donation-hiv-clinic

Not a teller, a janitor, or anyone else, despite the fact their incomes may be a fraction of the average Sanders supporter. The important point is they not work for someone you think unacceptable.

Meanwhile, a true progressive instead supports corporate welfare to the tune of $800 Billion to Lockheed-Martin for the F-35.

Profits that come from killing are just so much more noble than banks.

What is pathetic is that you present evidence that big money from Wall Street is going entirely to the GOP, but you twist it to try to claim Clinton is in their pockets, for a grand total of $84,000. That's laughable.

Musk made his money from virtual banking. Then there are scads of millionaires, whose support of Bernie has been posted with great enthusiasm on this site. Yet you find example of his turning down money from one person and pretend it is reflective of a trend.

Don't forget Billionaires for Bernie https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2015/07/15/theres-a-new-super-pac-for-bernie-sanders-it-wants-billionaire-donors/

Totally the same, no difference whatsoever.


You just proved Krugman's point: Wall Street money is going almost exclusively to the GOP. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/16/opinion/democrats-republicans-and-wall-street-tycoons.html?_r=2

It's not like Bernie doesn't have a whopping number of 1 percenters supporting him. In fact polls shows his supporters have higher incomes than Clinton's.

They support whoever they think is most likely to win. That's why they support both parties.

Another thing is that is not the only consideration. Walker was said to be backed by the Koch brothers. If $$ was the only factor as so many here present it, then Walker would not have had to drop out.
