I see this showing up in Warren’s next campaign ad.
Courtesy of NBC News:
Democratic donors on Wall Street and in big business are preparing to sit out the presidential campaign fundraising cycle — or even back President Donald Trump — if Sen. Elizabeth Warren wins the party’s nomination.
In recent weeks, CNBC spoke to several high-dollar Democratic donors and fundraisers in the business community and found that this opinion was becoming widely shared as Warren, an outspoken critic of big banks and corporations, gains momentum against Joe Biden in the 2020 race.
“You’re in a box because you’re a Democrat and you’re thinking, ‘I want to help the party, but she’s going to hurt me, so I’m going to help President Trump,’” said a senior private equity executive, who spoke on condition of anonymity in fear of retribution by party leaders. The executive said this Wednesday, a day after Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that the House would begin a formal impeachment inquiry into Trump.
This is extortion, fuck these guys.
Besides if they were truly reliable Democratic donors they would not even consider giving money to the Trump campaign.
Everybody knows that if you are a selfish POS that you are most certainly a Republican.
Warren has already clap back at this.
I’m fighting for an economy and a government that works for all of us, not just the wealthy and well-connected. I’m not afraid of anonymous quotes, and wealthy donors don’t get to buy this process. I won’t back down from fighting for the big, structural change we need. https://t.co/nx7GczQhHl

Good for her, all this does is make me want to support her even more.
She’s not going to hurt YOU, private equity executive, she’d going to hurt your bottom line.
All about the Benjamins!
She should pay it no attention and continue her march forward.
Could not say it better than “fuck those guys” we really need to get control of government into the major of voters hands,. Get the private money out of governing.
Absolutely. Hear Hear!
SCOTUS screwed the pooch with Citizens United just for starters.
This sounds like some Bernie Bro bullshit.
With an already trillion dollar debt, and climbing, my question has always been, “and just how are you going to pay for it?”
Not meant to offend anyone here. It’s a valid question only because I have always lived within my means.
A household budget and a government budget are not the same, unless you can print money and regulate interest rates. So stop with the Reagan-era talking point
I don’t give a tinker’s DAMN what you think nor what you tell me to do, “Karen.”
“With an already Trillion dollar debt> THIS YEAR ALONE>$1,000,000,000,000,000,000, i.e. 10¹⁸, as defined on the long scale “how are you going to pay for it?”<Good?
lol. good luck.
Clearly they aren’t true Democrats in any sense of the word.
Wonder how many true (aryan?) democrats there really are if you are into cleansing the party?
And Trump is going to help them by crashing the economy. They are short sighted greedy idiots.
The Wall Street thing is a prostitute, not a patriot.
Seems to me that’s more incentive to vote for her. If the DNCC caves to Wall St they can kiss the party goodbye. They will lose people in droves.
