Least horrible billionaire.

Well, they share our concern of not wanting the economy to be completely obliterated by tariffs.

Yes. Or try to. This is so weird.

Gotta be it. The Walton family have been pro-Republican anti-labor forever. Makes you wonder how many undocumented people WalMart has working for them in stores and warehouses, plus are employed in working with all the cheap produce and dairy they sell.

I too heap scorn on people who don’t do everything this guy thinks is appropriate.

Not good. Acting on its own self interests, which isn't always a dure thing.

Those self interests aligning with ours, however, is, an indicator that this is not just an extinction level threat, because there are lots of those where they don't ever, but a fucking bad one.

This isn't "being good".

This is simply her acting against tRump out of self-interest which coincidentally also happens to be acting against the same source of problems that the rest of us face.

Could you mean disingenuous, or do you think she’s innocent and unsuspecting?

Totally not disagreeing, but for some more context she married into the Walton family, inherited a 1.9% stake in the company when her husband died in 2005, and has never had a role in the organization.

The enemy of my enemy is my frenemy...?

The cynic in me says, who gives a fuck what a wealthy out of touch woman says in the first place. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad when anyone is on our side, it's always good to have powerful allies, and it is mildly interesting from an academic standpoint when wealthy people are anti-Trump. But her expression of support or dissent, even amplified in a newspaper ad, is no more impactful or valuable at the end of the day than yours or mine. Unless she is literally financing change (which doesnt include opinion piece ads) or has the ear of those in authority who can actually make change happen, her money, status and name mean nothing.

The headline may as well be your neighbor's cousin Darren yelled out of his window "go protest Trump". Like thanks for the moral support Darren, but why are we even talking about you?

Ding ding ding, winner!

I get it.

But I'll say this, any billionaire that ACTUALLY cared about progressive causes could make huge strides by simply funding grassroot movements, instead of whatever the fuck this ad is supposed to do.

It wouldn't even cost that much, just pump money into youtube creators and organisers and you'll actually make a difference.

Republicans are winning because they are winning the propaganda game, becuase they are well funded by the Kochs, Musks and other billionaire assholes

Until they do they all this stuff is just bullshit.

Maybe she's not a class traitor but people gotta start somewhere

... I mean, that's a lot of money and a lot of homeless people around her. And she is getting richer each year from the company that pays poverty wages.

I think it's literally just a coincidence. I've never heard anything else at all about or from her.

I'm just learning this woman exists, so I assume she's mad about her money.

It's a dark timeline.

There are a lot of Walmart heirs, and even collectively I doubt they own enough shares to control the company at this point.

Her daddy also kneecaped unions.

the world is larger than north america… walmart does not operate in the vast majority of the world… it doesn’t even operate in the vast majority of western countries

Father in law

Really? Who's her dad?

Exactly.

The Republicans have kind of been purging themselves of Anti-Trump these last few elections, and the DNC are already the party who would remove Trump in a heartbeat.
