Definitely the donors if one of the two has to be picked. In addition to being dependent on them for campaign finance, they usually get incredibly well paid "jobs" from these donors at the end of their term. This isn't to say they don't serve the people at all, but the balance of power is clearly in favor of the donors rather than the demos.

Technically it's both answers, and that's why even if they satisfy who holds the money bags they still can get fired by their other boss - the citizens. But unfortunately, the citizens have become simply terrible about firing their bad employees, which mean the money bags get whatever they want.

George Soros, the Rockefellers, the Rothchilds, and other Globalist elites that want us in a government of despotism that they control.

The Vanderbilts running CNN, Rupert Murdoch.... they want all real liberals, real conservatives, and moderates divided, so they can justify putting shock collers on us. And they'll pay protesters, stage events and chaos, race bait and use real hate groups to add fuel to the fire. Looks like they are doing a good job.

The 1%! (Which is rapidly growing to two or three percent)! The money gets the grease for the shaft that WE get! (And it's sliding easier and easier with Trump and the conservative Congress and Senate ... and, of course, the conservative SCOTUS)! Gerrymandering and the Electoral College will bring down The United States! We are well on our way to our second oligarchy! Where is Teddy Roosevelt when we need him! Oh....he's dead, guess we are too.

Obama won the POPULAR VOTE TWICE by OVER 50%. Nobody has done that since Ike! NEWS FLASH! THAT was while the conservative Gerrymandering was nearly complete the first time, and done by the second. The Electoral College went with the YUGE majority of people that didn't like Rmoney OR McCain/Palin. McCain might have won if he hadn't chosen that total argument against "intelligent design" .... Palin!

Few people are crazier than the "outhouse60" rat.

So if they didn't exist, we were all equal, and that meant you had no internet or cable tv, and less money, would that right the "wrong" and make you feel better?

We know where Teddy is. He's busy getting his statues taken down because the left has deemed him the next racist on the hit list.

The only statues coming down are the statues of traitors to the United States and ITS Constitution. Teddy was no traitor.

If YOU loved the Confederate States of (America?), go there .... and say hello to Jefferson Davis for me. (Enjoy your right wing, white nationalist, racist propaganda piece, I'm not interested.)
