American oligarchs don't even pretend anymore. They used to at least hide a little bit, you know, act not so conspicuous. Now it's like, "We both know I run everything, so let's just get on with it."

This is what oligarchy looks like. Elon Musk's Pac spent $200 million to help elect Trump. Since Election Day, Musk has become $55 billion richer, he's now worth $319 billion & will likely get the largest tax break ever while the federal minimum wage has not gone up in 15 years.

The statement by @ColleenCaliend2 addresses the influence of billionaires in politics, which is a substantive public issue. It suggests that billionaires should not have a controlling influence in political matters, aligning with concerns about oligarchy and democratic integrity.
