    Perhaps the donors will be made. Or maybe the donors will look at the trillions they've gotten in tax cuts, bailouts and unsecured loans and then enjoy a good night sleep inside their Uncle Scrooge Money Bins.https://twitter.com/mjs_DC/status/1272569143674503170 …

    Don't underestimate the anger today's SCOTUS decision will provoke on the right. It could boil over into a crisis. Conservative donors spent millions getting Gorsuch on the bench. They wanted results. Now they're going to ask Republicans: THIS is the return on our investment?

        There is a difference between the donor class and the voting base. The donors could eventually lose their voters if they don't deliver on the social issue stuff, which motivates the base far more than economics.

        Seems their concern for morality and life was a ruse to preserve their power and money in the first place. Same with their faux patriotism to mask the racism. Appalling that so many have and continue to be duped

        Happy in the knowledge that Supreme Court justices are their own men/women.

        This is certainly true for some donors and was my thought initially as well, but we would all be remiss to downplay the views of say the judicial crises network and its ilk. Whatever ills they may have they are very serious about promoting the right wing sexual agenda in court

        The donor class won't care. The direct mail scam fundraisers are overjoyed at another issue to fleece grandpa out of money.
