anecdotally, knowing some very rich people, they mostly voted for trump in 2016. Pretty much every single one voted for Biden or declined to vote this year.

I voted for myself and have been getting a lot of shit for it for some reason.

I respect voting for yourself over voting third party. If you're going to vote for someone who can't win, at least make it the person you agree with the most.

Very rich people can pretty much be ignored as there are under 1% of them anywhere you look.

You can say that about a lot of interest groups

And you'll be right, unless all these SIGs are somehow similarly aligned.

Perhaps you made the same mistake as pollsters and your friends voted for Trump and just don't want to admit it?
