A little hint on who rules over us. Hint: it's not Dems vs Repubs.

Well yeah.

If you really want to freak yourself out, consider this: For as long as civilization has existed, the upper echelon has kept the rest of us around because they needed us: to grow their crops, make and maintain all of their stuff, fight their wars, etc, etc.

Now, thanks to AI and robotics, us common folk are becoming obsolete. The people in charge don't need us anymore. That being the case, why should they let us continue? I can't think of one good reason.

How Rich Are President Joe Biden, VP Kamala Harris and the Wealthiest US Politicians?

This is why things will never change for the common person imv.

There is only one ruling class, and that is the wealthy alone.

If we would like our next President to be a non-wealthy class person, then we should consider electing AOC for POTUS. She has been a working=class bartender before her Congressional public servitude., She is not wealthy as evident by her not being able to afford paying for her $32,000 tax the rich dress she was gifted to wear at the Met Gala.

Trump was the wealthiest politician in the history of the US and look where that got us, most of the wealthiest politicians have been Republican, too

They still need us, for now. And there are more of us than there are of them.

The oligarchy controls the hoi polloi, only because the hoi polloi allows itself to be manipulated and controlled. It’s been that way since classical times.

The Dems you mention are richer than Trump and haven't been bankrupt (at least I don't think so)

US politics is driven by money, the change in law allowing PACS made it even worse.

Biden and Harris are richer than Trump?? Are you smoking something??

She's on her way in joining the elite wealthy.

Watch what happens with her demeanor and policy when she hits millionaire status, provided of course, she's even still in politics.

Yep. Also called the nobility which is how they as a group carry themselves as.
