A recent Gallup poll shows that 28% of Americans identify as Republicans, 27% identify as Democrats and 42% identify as independents. Our billionaire cohort skewed farther right: 43% Republicans, 24% Democrats and 33% independents. Yet they’re swaying blue. Nearly half, or 48%, say they’re casting a ballot for Biden, compared to 40% for Trump. That tracks with the larger population, which favors Biden to Trump 51-42
Say what?
Thats not hard to understand. The Billionaire set skews capitalist.

And unlike most of the Republican base can also spell their own names.

Trump was cancer for a large percentage of the billionaire set because he kept breaking supply chains and doing dumb poo poo that made international pariahs out of US businesses. Further, his negligent bungling of the coronavirus response cost american companies *trillions*.

Billionaires skew conservative when it suits their interest and liberal when it suits their interest, but at the end of the day the only ideology the billionaires actually subscribe to is "billionaires".
(Remember we are talking "elites", as in the people who actually run this joint, not some coke-rear end hollywood actor)
