Tom Steyer has had it up to here. Not with us Republicans, it seems, but with his own Democrats, and he now plans to cut off their nose to spite their faces. The leftwing billionaire hedge fund speculator has announced he won't be bankrolling the Democratic National Committee as he has in the past, based on his dissatisfaction with congressional Democrats' refusal to continue the government shutdown and go down with it. He wanted them to just keep it shut, never mind that the public wasn't with him. Get a load of his reasoning as reported by the Washington Examiner:
Democratic mega-donor Tom Steyer will halt donations to the national Democratic Party committees after members of the caucus voted to re-open the federal government despite failing to secure an immigration deal for Dreamers.
“I don’t have a litmus test on any one thing, but I do have a litmus test for elected officials standing on principle and doing the right thing, looked at holistically," Steyer told Fortune in an article published online Thursday. "And I want to say that after the DACA vote, I have decided not to give anything to the national party committees."
Standing on principle? On principle? This from the guy who calls for higher taxes yet has tax liens owed to the federal government? He doesn't even pay the taxes he owes and yet wants more of them. Only little people pay taxes, see.
It's all part of his general oafishness around public opinion. A rich guy, of course he doesn't care what the public wants, even if they vote.

This nut.
I saw one of his stupid “Impeach Trump” commercials, and it was dumb.

Just think if Steyer spent the millions he wastes on advertising money on developing irrigation/agriculture in the 3rd world. He’s getting ready to run for POTUS, IMO. What a drama queen.
In a huff? Is that a new $350,000 automobile from Ferrari? Or is it from Telsa?

He can’t get his way so he’s taking his ball and going home.
Tom Steyer always had the ‘air of nuts’ around him... Maybe democrats are better off without him.
