    just looking at the website, you can tell the target audience is specifically the 1% who want republicans to win. it’ll be the same shit with pretty much anything with “business” or “financial” or “economy” in the name of the site

    so yea, they will NEVER talk about the insider trading, cheating, fraud, etc. done by republicans

      But even in social media, people have been so focused on her while ignoring that she’s never #1 (heck, in 2022 she got beat by the S&P500) that I can’t help but wonder if there’s some underlying misogyny that explains it…

        underlying misogyny

        it’s not underlying, it’s blatant, and misogyny is a core part of the GOP platform. yes, republican women are most definitely misogynists

          Pretty naive if you think only Republicans are complaining about her trades!

            everyone’s absolute top priority for the next three and a half months should be keeping trump out of the white house. complaining about dems doesn’t help to achieve that objective, it hinders it. when trump loses, by all means–criticize all the dems all the time. but at this point, bOtHsIdEs-ing anything is accomplishing nothing but strengthening an R win and weakening D

              Please note that my original comment was me pointing out that people complain about a democrat while ignoring all the Republicans that do better than her, so please don’t tell me I’m complaining about the elected Democrats, my only criticism of Democrats was against electors hating on Pelosi instead of their true enemy.
