"...riches trump idiocy...."

I don’t trust rich people in politics. They seem weird. Currently our most well known were either born into wealth, or grifted their way into it. Hard work had little to do with it. No bootstraps to be pulled, or obstacles to overcome. Rules that apply to others do not apply to them. They seem petty. Prudish but still progressively Pervy. Petulant. Patronizing. Pernicious. Pedantic. Perpetually peevish. Two rich people fucked, and a third rich person was the result. It’s that old baseball adage. They were born on third base and think they hit a triple.

(My current poster boy for all this is my very own Congressional representative, Rob Bresnahan, a man of immense privilege and overcooked hair-dye, who ran on a platform of “I promise I won’t fuck you” and then cackled like a horny hyena when he voted to do just that. Bresnahan is a loathsome, bootlicking liar, but, Congressionally speaking, would be difficult to pick out of a line-up. He looks and sounds like the rest of them. He could be a bot.)
