Right now, it’s become glaringly evident to anyone paying attention that we’re either stuck with Hillary or Jeb in 2016.
“By and large, Wall Street so far appears to be betting on a 2016 presidential race that pits former Florida governor Jeb Bush against former US secretary of state Hillary Clinton, based on tallies of fundraising reports as of July 15 that revealed plenty of money from bank employees and financiers,” Quartz recently declared.
The big six megabanks and Wall Street are putting all their money behind Clinton and Bush, and since these people and corporations got to where they are by betting on rigged games over the years, they should all be experts at it by now.
Only three percent of Bush’s donations actually come from small donors. It’s all big money people. Goldman Sachs is Hillary’s largest financial supporter by employer. Hillary’s top contributors also include Citigroup, JP Morgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, and Lehman Brothers among others.
The Guardian reported, “Hillary Clinton and Jeb Bush, the 2016 presidential candidates leading the money race in the Democratic and Republican fields, are amassing fortunes that will leave them politically indebted to some of the most influential lobbyists in Washington.”
Meanwhile, Billionaires like Manhattan Grocery Store mogul John Catsimatidis has proudly donated the personal limit to both Jeb and Hillary. “I’ve been friends with both of their families for many, many years. They both love America, and I’d be happy if either of them won,” he told the Washington Post.
And he’s not the only one.

This election cycle will be the tipping point. The season of our discontent. There will either be divine intervention or a really nasty fallout. Pray for the first, prepare for the latter.
