It seems that when the media reports "Democratic opinion" they don't mean D voters; they mean a minority of D politicians and a number of D "donors," i.e. rich people who try to control political discourse through their money to benefit themselves (and who will just as happily donate to Rs when that benefits them).

There is no reason for a "donor class" to even exist. It's fundamentally contrary to democracy.

@Bliss Just saw him referred to as "Griftbilly..."
