I don’t buy it. Red states hate billionaires even more than blue states. Centrist Democrats have nothing to offer to Republican voters to change their minds. Progressives speak directly to the economic issues that plague red states.
They elected a billionaire because he attacked other billionaires. He voices their rage at the “elitists” in Washington, and he pretends to be one of them.
And they love oil barons, and bankers are their heroes, and Jeff bezos is soooo cool with his penis rockets.
They really love billionaires more than they hate them. They just don’t like the charity ones.

I mean, red states elected a billionaire because he was a billionaire.
But Centrist Democrats think that if they just kick progressives harder, they’ll gain the favor of the three remaining moderate Republicans.

I think they hate the “generic billionaire”, but are they any actual billionaires they hate?
Bill Gates and George Soros are a pretty obvious examples.
The only notable counter-examples are rich celebrities that give them permission to be shitty, like Trump and Elon.
And they love oil barons, and bankers are their heroes, and Jeff bezos is soooo cool with his penis rockets.

(citation needed)
They often just call them elitists, bankers, or “Jews”.
That’s not supporting evidence.
“That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.”
Where is the evidence to the contrary? That was the original assertion.
No, it wasn’t.
I asked for evidence for a claim. You didn’t give one.
That only proves that they hate Jews more than blue states.
Republicans equating “elite bankers” with Jews, and then you equating that to billionaires, doesn’t actually make them the same thing you know…
