Eat the Rich

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Gavin and allies vs SEIU and allies:

Gov. Gavin Newsom vowed to stop California's billionaire tax. He has just over a week left to keep it off the ballot.

What do you think?

Why every store asks you to donate money and WHY YOU SHOULD STOP!

Conservative Freedom Fest with Kid Rock canceled after only 6 VIP tickets sell

... "When I put together Patriots Day Freedom Fest, I put it together with the game plan and the idea that I could pay for it with VIP sales of $1,000 from these 100 people that I interact with on a regular basis," he said on Facebook Live.

Deters, who ran as a Republican for Kentucky governor in 2023 and for the state's 4th Congressional District in 2024, criticized the lack of VIP sales, adding, "I want to tell you something, rich people, as a whole, suck."
Voters too? :crybaby:
Deters confirmed that he has no plans to revive the festival, which debuted in 2022, saying, "I am never ever, ever, ever, ever doing this event again. Ever."
:violin:
This year's lineup was intially set to include speakers like Kid Rock, Dog the Bounty Hunter, Kentucky Republican congressional nominee Ed Gallrein, U.S. Rep. James Comer and Fox News contributor Joe Concha. Previous lineups included speakers like Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and Candace Owens.
:puke-left:
... "Those people that didn't buy VIP tickets, it wasn't 'cause they don't like Trump or don't support Trump. I know these people. They're all Trump supporters. The reason why, they didn't buy VIP tickets, is because they're just not very good human beings," he said in a Sept. 22 livestream. "It's got nothing to do with Trump. It's to do with money. These people value money more than anything else in the world. It's sad."
Sounds like sour grapes to me. Maybe the Festival just sucks. :lol:
