Spare me from billionaire buffoons that want to save the world …
Because an individual was successful in one area of business, it does not mean that their skills are transferable and that they have the knowledge, wisdom, or temperament to steer the ship of state.
Now comes Tom Steyer, a billionaire hedge fund manager turned progressive socialist Democrat activist, who refuses to listen to scientists as he demands we overturn capitalism, our economy, and our culture to fight a non-existent bogeyman. According to Steyer’s public relations guru, “the campaign will focus on fixing two major ‘crises’ — reforming a ‘broken political system’ and ‘saving our planet from the ravages of climate change.’” Both goals of the international socialists, communists, and anarchists who are trying to bring about a fundamental transformation of the United States. All which looks suspiciously like the authoritarian manifestation of European-style “social democracy” – the latest re-labeling of socialism/communism.
According to Steyer, “The other Democratic candidates for president have many great ideas that will absolutely move our country forward, but we won’t be able to get any of those done until we end the hostile corporate takeover of our democracy. As an outsider, I’ve led grassroots efforts that have taken on big corporations and won results for people. That’s not something you see a lot of from Washington these days. That’s why I’m running for president.”
An example of Steyer’s disingenuous nature…
Steyer’s company took a significant position in a target company, demanded seats on the board of directors, demanded the divestiture or discontinuance of business lines along with the type of cost-cutting that mandates employees are laid off. He often demanded that a large portion of the cost savings be returned to the investors, from which he and company expected a big payout. Then he sold out at a profit and moved on.
Besides plundering corporations for profit, the “un-woke” Steyer invested in coal production and other fossil fuels. How about profiting from the incarceration of individuals through Corrections Corporation of America which owns and operates private prisons? Or personally owning an 1800-acre cattle ranch populated by cows busily destroying the environment with cow farts.
Steyer is an elitist, living in a secure San Francisco mansion that overlooks the Golden Gate Bridge. His education mirrors his progressive elitism: Buckley, Phillips Exeter Academy, Yale, and then Stanford for an MBA.
All while raising significant campaign funds for such feckless lefties such as Walter Mondal, Bill Bradley, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama. All progressive socialist Democrats.
Steyer founded NextGen Climate, a tax-free non-profit to advance his flawed climate ideology – and it is an ideology – and then later renamed to NextGen America to pursue Steyer’s campaign against President Donald Trump. Steyer is the force begin the “Need to Impeach” campaign.
Bottom line…
Forget Russian collusion and interference in our political system, Steyer has spent millions of dollars to influence presidential elections, state campaigns, and ballot initiatives. All from a progressive socialist Democrat agenda that is steeped in Russia-like Marxism and Communism. More disturbing because Steyer purports to be an America and owes his entire fortune to capitalism.
We are so screwed.
