This might be a sign that the Democratic party is on life support.
"From the outset, several top-tier Democratic presidential candidates are pushing for new taxes on the wealthiest Americans and attempting to portray themselves as best positioned to fight the country’s yawning inequality gap."
Considering that the wealthiest Americans are also the biggest financial donors, why would they target their best friends with new taxes? Unless they were no longer friends. Maybe the Dem party's only friends they have left are immigrants and welfare recipients.
