So Wall Street is not even majority Republican.

What is your experience with Wall Street? Did you ever work on the Street..
Donations are not relevant.

The vast majority of Wall Street is Republican.

Donations = putting your money where your mouth is. If anything voting patterns are a lagging indicator.

Proof that the vast majority of Wall Street is Republican? Name some firm names and lets talk. Did you work on the Street?

It's a well known fact.

Do your own research. I don't have the time or patience to explain that the sky is blue.

You have nothing to back up those statements, which is why your response cannot be backed up with facts and data.

Historically Wall St. may have been Republican, however it's a lot more polarized now and will continue to trend away from MAGA Republicans. The donations are proof of a tilt towards Democrats, we may see the trend reverse if the Republicans move away from Trump/MAGA and more towards a Mitt Romney like moderate.

In no way is the vast majority of Wall Street, Republican at this time.

The donations imply that the Democrats are now the multinational corrupt corporate establishment. Not a surprise to those who have been paying attention.

The schizophreniacs here pi*s and moan about income inequality and the rich not paying their share while gleefully proclaiming to be the party of the wealthy.
