In new "leaked webcam video," billionaire playboy Grayson von Trapp plots against Democratic plans to tax billionaires to pay for health care, child care, and fighting climate change.
The Washington Post and New York Times reported Wednesday that taxing billionaires is high on the White House priority list to fund their economic agenda -- and is being championed by Senate Finance Chair Ron Wyden.
"They want to get millions of uninsured people health care with my money? Can Sinema block it?" asked the billionaire, who also sends Joe Manchin champagne for his yacht.
Recent polling shows that in 37 swing congressional districts, support for the Build Back Better agenda grows from a net 14 points (56-42) to a net 43 points (69-26) when voters learn the package is funded by taxing billionaires. Similar polling shows strong popularity for taxing billionaires in West Virginia and Arizona, home of Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema -- two Democratic Senate holdouts.
In the video, the billionaire is not amused!
"The Biden White House wants to...What the hell is a billionaire’s tax?" the billionaire asks. "I pay taxes on all my stock gains? Every year? No no no no no no no. That's what my sister does with her income. That's communism."
"Can Sinema block it?" asks Cross. "Okay, great. Send her five checks -- one through the corporate PAC, one from me. You know, blah blah blah. Tell the Chamber of Commerce we’re in for some ads."
