Billionaire Bernie Marcus to Donate Majority of Fortune, Support Trump for Re-Election

The catastrophic harm, suffering, violence, death, and destruction committed by people of great wealth who are completely asleep cannot be overestimated. I just cannot even begin to find the words to say how chilling this is. This is the face of evil. Such dangerous times. It is also important to note that Bernie Sanders is identified as "the enemy of every entrepreneur" exactly because Bernie is the greatest threat to the power structures that are destroying our country and the planet. Do not underestimate how vicious the powerful will be in trying to take Bernie Sanders down. And do not underestimate how needed we are in this national and global movement to transform ourselves and our world to one which cares for and cherishes life rather than destroys it. We truly are all needed. The time is now for us to act individually and together to save ourselves and the Earth. Everything we love is at stake. ― Molly
