GOP & DNC Masquerade As Working-Class Parties While Serving Billionaires

In his speech at the Republican National Convention, VP candidate JD Vance tried to portray himself and the GOP as the party of the working class. He criticized US foreign policy and named the “ruling class” as the source of working peoples’ misery. But Vance himself is a venture capitalist “whose whole career has been propped up by a supervillain tech billionaire,” BreakThrough News Editor-in-Chief Ben Becker says. “

As the Democratic Party abandoned the working class, that created a vacuum that the Republicans are now stepping into.” Ben joins hosts Rania and Eugene to explain why the GOP is still very much a party for the billionaire class.
