Jeff Bezos, worth $240 billion, sailed on his $500 million yacht to a $55 million wedding in Venice to give his wife a $5 million ring & spends $12.7 million on union busting so he can replace workers with robots.

“Health care crisis? Ignored.
Wages? Flat.
Bills? Sky high.

She says her electricity bill alone is up $100 since last year—and blasts Republicans for abandoning “America First.”
When even Marge sounds like Bernie, you know the base is boiling.
