There are now 2,900 billionaires, and they hold $15.8 trillion.
The wealth of the bottom 50% of the global population, over 4 billion people, is estimated at $3.7 trillion.
The Democratic Party must stand for something.
Trump murders people he accuses of being drug traffickers, even if they don't receive a trial by jury. But one who did get a trial by jury, and was found guilty of flooding the United States with cocaine, Donald Trump claims was the victim of a witch hunt, and pardoned him.
