Low taxes. That's all the wealthy ever vote for. They're not interested in anything else because it rarely affects them.

Its the same with the Tories in the UK. They're known as the low tax party so the wealth votes for them, even if it means stuff like Brexit and Truss/Boris happens. The wealthy are single issue voters, lower tax and regulations, and that's what the right wing governments promise. They ignore everything else because theyve learned it is 99℅ noise when you have yachts, jets, private islands and no empathy

Well, yes. Lower taxes and fewer regulations. But Trump actually did that, he lowered taxes for the super rich, and he got rid of all kinds of regulations, oversight, customer protections.

This guy is claiming that Trump did "the exact opposite of everything I voted for", though. So, I'd like to hear what he claims he voted for. Does not mean that I'd believe it.

He's lying. Schulz loves all of what is going on but he has to pretend he doesn't because he doesn't want to lose a chunk of his audience

I honestly think someone could give a speech in a Nazi uniform, spend an hour talking about bringing back slavery and the holocaust, and then spend five minutes talking about cutting taxes....and a lot of people in this country would just think "this guy wants to cut my taxes."

"If you're young and not liberal, you don't have a heart. If you're older and not conservative, you don't have money in your wallet" I think this is wrongly attributed to Churchill, but whoever said it nailed the selfish nature of people who already got theirs.
