...with G.O.P. Big Buck Bros gathered round to .... it.

They waz met with a re-sounding booooo
Told that they themselves they could screw.
But keep your Plutocrat paws out of our pockets.

JD Vance met by protesters on Nantucket
Chanting demonstrators carrying signs gathered along the road outside the fundraiser where the vice president was scheduled to headline Tuesday.

Big Buck RepubliBro plutocrats have Americans by the short hairs, and they are jerking us around

Bob Reynolds and his wife, Laura, hosted a GOP fundraiser at their Nantucket home where tickets cost $100,000 or more.

The cost of houses there is off the charts, and the people there (and the Vineyard) hold LOTS of fundraisers every summer. Obama and the Clintons were regulars, and this year, I know Senators Ossoff and Hickenlooper are coming, and I think Katie Hobbs of Arizona was planning a trip, though I don’t know exactly when. If Nantucket weren’t such a pain to get to from Provincetown, I’d be making the trek over there myself a couple of times just to see “the gang.” I know there are people that hire private planes for just such occasions. I am not one of them.

ever so gradually ...

Once a great whaling port, now it's become a private place for prissy plutocrats.

A Vance once went to Nantucket,
Where protesters said he could suck it.
Said he with a whine,
“The fault isn’t mine!”
If consequence came, he would duck it.

Love the last line reminding us that the GOPers always duck out on responsibility,
like a pack of chislers.
