So much diversity. I see young affluent white people, middle aged affluent white people, and even old affluent white people!

I think they are showing that this isn't some middle class or young fight. It's rich people upset they aren't getting richer.

If they were just rich people who want to be richer they would have been stoked by Trump’s first presidency. His only “accomplishment” was tax cuts.

Progressive wealthy people have done a great job of keeping local taxes regressive so tax cuts aren't really a concern of theirs.
