#DonorClass
Someone forgot to clear this through the #DNC. Gonna piss off the #DonorClass & Centrist/Corporate Dems. 😂
BREAKING: Two Democratic Reps. are introducing a bill to raise the federal minimum wage to $25/hr and eliminate subminimum wages.

Reps. Delia Ramirez and Analilia Mejia are introducing the bill, saying it's unacceptable that the minimum wage has been stuck at $7.25 since 2009.

If @democrats.org would run on this platform, they'd win in a landslide.

But the #DonorClass says "No," so they will run on a GOP-lite "We're not Trump" platform ... and likely lose.

Why is it so hard for the US to do this?

BOUGHT AND PAID FOR BY BILLIONAIRES

Just about the only difference between the DNC and MAGA is which billionaires are funding and demanding quid pro quos. The #EpsteinClass and #DonorClass are virtually the same or, often are the same.
March 29, 2026 at 4:29 PM
@democrats.org aspire to be as big of billionaire boot-lickers as GOP.

Not enough to be the "Not Trump" party.

You have to materially change working people's lives for the better to win.

They will lose this year & in 2028 for abandoning the #WorkingClass to kiss #DonorClass @$$.

WHY is DonorClass/ DNC
ignoring
14 MILLION primary votes 🗳 ???

And u set up - DNC- awful choices for Tx.

You're IGNORING faithfully blue SanAntonio and Border, South Tx...

DNC making one f up after another but THIS I take very personally.

Do not ignore voters for elite donors.

Absolutely correct, Professor Reich!

Unfortunately, the DNC workshopped this idea in the Hamptons last weekend.

After the #DonorClass stopped laughing ... they gave the idea a hard pass.

They said "too bad about the poors, though" as they poured another Mamosa.
The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

19/22 — Fear of saying something wrong makes public figures say nothing meaningful.

True! But the primary driver of political blandness isn't the online mob.

It's the donor class. Follow the money, not the outrage.

Professor Reich is spot on!

Unfortunately, the DNC workshopped the idea in The Hamptons last weekend.

Hard no from the #DonorClass.

They did say "too bad about the poors, though" as they ordered another round of mimosas.
If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money.

They must hammer economic populism — and have a laser focus on the cost of living crisis in America.

There’s no way the party can speak for or represent the working class in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

Correct. The #DonorClass is running the show. They decide things far before people vote for candidates
November 9, 2025 at 1:45 AM
And the path was laid by democrats and republicans by selling out to the donorclass.

It’d help to not have the rich decide who the candidates are. #CitizensUnited #DonorClass stink

Are they really reading the room?... What's going to happen to all these companies when the progressive wave takes over congress?

Getting the cost of fossil & nuclear fuel to include decommissioning and future damage costs, would be a great start......but bad for the #DonorClass and their Puppet Politicians.

Very important read⬇️

Great point Professor Reich!

DNC ran it by the #DonorClass up at the Hamptons this past weekend.

They said hard pass. Economy is working great for them & their trust fund kids. Too bad for the poors though...
The real choice before us is between democracy and tyranny, between an economy that works for all or one that works just for the rich.

If the Democrat's mega-donor class chooses the latter, it may be acting in its narrow self-interest — but it will also be acting against the future of this nation.
August 17, 2026 at 10:07 PM
You are right. The political system in America has become skewed to serving the wealthy, leaving the great majority without a share of the prosperity. A big part of the problem is the #DonorClass, and Citizens United, which allows endless money to influence American politics, instead of the people.

🤬🔵🐀🔵🤬 HATES its #anticorporate wing as much as #MAGATs. 🔵🐀🔵's anticorporate wing is a direct threat to #centrists ' #donorclass & #consultantclass which keep them in the "business" of government when elected & provides them with #networking opportunities for a cushy #retirement &/or defeat options.

More evidence, should you require it, that corporate @democrats.org will choose the #DonorClass over the #WorkingClass every f*©️king time.

And they wonder why they keep losing?

It’s tough having only 2 parties when neither are focused on regular folks and both are swayed more by the #DonorClass than what families need. There are still opportunities for the Democrat leadership to reset their focus, but NYC will struggle with its path. I’m sorry you lost your Dad so young.
