‘How is this happening?’ Left-wing TV host slams presence of billionaires at Trump’s inauguration

‘How is this happening?’ Left-wing TV host slams presence of billionaires at Trump’s inauguration
Story by Benedict Smith • 5h

Rachel Maddow asked “how is this happening?” and questioned why “people with tons of money” were seated prominently at Donald Trump’s inauguration as she reported on the historic event live on-air.

The Left-wing MSNBC host, who appeared grim as Mr Trump took the oath of office on Monday, also suggested that he had developed a Messiah complex and criticised his “grievance”-laden speech.
 
Others who appeared on the broadcaster compared Mr Trump to a “cult leader”, branded his inauguration a “farce”, and said he would undermine the US Constitution.

Maddow, whose ratings tumbled in the wake of Mr Trump’s November election win, expressed bafflement as she noted the number of billionaires who had joined the Republican on the inauguration dais.

“Kristi Noem, the nominee for homeland security, next to Apple CEO Tim Cook. How is this happening in America?” she asked.

I believe ol' Rach sees her left-wing sun setting in the west and she is rapidly losing her influence and therefore her usefulness with it.  She may feel she will have to do the broadcaster rope-a-dope to save her sorry ass.  :0012:  :cheerlead:  :dancer:  :elephant:

The simple explanation:  The Left is going back to basics... painting the GOP as the "Big Business - $$$ Party" and the enemy of the common man.

If they can be successful in sustaining economic misery for the average American (Yellen's refusal to cut interest rates), they hope to see the mid-term elections swing back in their favor.

Had Biden been reelected to a second term, would this guy have attended?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

If you can't beat him, join him, appears to be the effective course of action for these billionaires.

Trump has already kissed the posterior of billionaires in Silicon Valley promising to broaden the numbers of H1-b Visa recipients.  These tech billionaires want their share of the largesse.  Trump will deliver to them tons of federal money, all for the taking, all they need do is ask.

And the American people, well good news for blue collar workers, for most likely, the wall will be built.  FINALLY!!!  After 10-20 million illegal invaders poured over the border, a 20+ year supply of blue collar workers, all of whom will displace millions of USA blue collar workers from the workforce, but who f***ing  cares>  No one I know.

And then, there is the promise by Trump to increase the number of H1-b recipients, which will further displace UA citizens that are white collar workers, mostly in tech.  Again, no one cares. 

I was talking to my neighbor, who is a Trump supporter, conservative, and I was ranting about the further displacement of USA citizens via H1-b Visa recipients.  He hung up on me.  That is how disconnected Americans are to their fellow citizens.  Until they experience personally, or one of their children are displaced, they just do not care about USA citizens being displaced by low cost foreign labor. 

IF REPUBLICANS SUPPORT TRUMP ON THIS, THE FURTHER EXPANSION OF THE H1-B VISA PROGRAM, THEY WILL LOSE BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS IN 2026, AND TRUMP GETS IMPEACHED FOR A 3RD TIME, AND THE DEMOCOMMIES HAVE THE NUMBERS TO PUSH HIM OUT.  CONSERVATIVES BETTER START PAYING ATTENTION, BECAUSE I CAN SEE IT PLAIN AS DAY IN JUNE.

BTW, DAY TWO of Trump as POTUS, and they have filed a lawsuit to stop the birthright EO Trump signed.  The Democommies will file so many lawsuits, they will do everything they can to stop Trump and the Republicans.

I think all of you will agree with me that time is of the essence.  The Republicans must produce real results that positively affect the majority of folks in the USA.  Peoples' backs are up against the wall.  Cost of living is painful.  Trump has to lower cost, and the Republicans MUST show their support to manifest such an outcome, otherwise, they are in and out in 2 years, and Trump is impeached a 3rd time six months after the Democommies regain control of both houses.

Did you hear the comments by that horsesh*t bishop at the church Trump attended today?  What a f***ing bimbo.  Bet that is the last time Trump steps in that moronic led church!!!!!  You mean to tell me there is no church in the Washington area led by a conservative minded religious puke?  I trust people of the cloth as much as I trust the FBI, which is ZERO TRUST!!!
