    Both red and blue candidates owns multiple million-dollar properties. I believe you are missing the point of this meme

    Edit: I didn’t noticed the flag at first, for a moment i though people were finally realizing how much the system is rig but it’s just another political meme

      Both red and blue candidates owns multiple million-dollar properties.

      The term “million dollar property” doesn’t mean anything to me. Every home in my area costs at least a million. That’s not mind-blowing wealth, that’s just homeownership these days.

      You’re also fucking wrong. Tim Walz is a blue candidate that I will vote for, and he’s got less of a net worth than I do (his $330k to my $360k), and only owns one modest home. Kamala Harris may be worth about $8M (with a single $5M home in L.A.), but that’s still not even 1%er territory, and still only a single property…

      The Republicans are firmly the party for billionaires like Elon Musk ($270B). If you can’t tell the difference between thousands, millions, and billions (or hundreds of billions) that’s your own stupid fault.

      Elon Musk is, and I’m not exaggerating, worth 820,000 times more than Tim Walz, and he’s all-in on Trump (who also claims to be a billionaire). If you want to fight back against the rich, learn math and pay attention to who has all the money.

      I didn’t noticed the flag at first

      Or the aerial shot of Mar-a-lago (worth $28M)

      PS: learn how to use tenses correctly.

        Check their net worth again once you are paying him taxes, remember to do this.

        The average salary around the world is less than 1000$. 5 Millions in my country is enough to get half of the castle show in the picture.

          The salary of a VP is $284,600. His net worth will increase, but not by an absurd amount.

          I don’t see how that’s relevant, he won’t be VP of any country but the USA. However things work in the country you live in, take it up with your own leaders. And maybe bite your tongue about other countries’ politics if you neither understand or are affected by them.

            Might as well stop now, that dude will keep moving the goal post. You had me convinced with your first message.

            Being american making more than 1000$ a month you are already in the 1%
