    How is Dorsey’s opinion supposed to matter to me?

    Business leaders have nothing in common with the rest of us, so why should we trust them to have our best interests in mind? Athletes, famous musicians, business leaders, celebrities all have one thing in common - money. They have much more of it than the vast majority of people and they generally want more of it.

    Jack Dorsey doesn’t want Democrats in power because they might “take his money”, so he’s promoting a fringe candidate to be a spoiler to Biden.

      Because he has the ability to influence the public either with his reputation or his social media platform once it gets going. There’s also a group of people who likely look up to him as someone who’s fulfilled the American dream, starting at the bottom and becoming a billionaire and sadly far too many Americans believe if they were only given the chance that would be them too so they listen to this drivel.
