I don't think there's a split in the billionaire class --- the odd individual billionaire like Musk is hardly evidence --- I wouldn't be surprised if the capitalists come together to try and beat TRUMP ---
--- there were LOTS of businesses who addressed the Supreme COurt urging them to uphold the CHEVRON doctrine --- now that the Court has gone ROgue,I think that more of the corporate elite are going to see them as creating dangerous instability -- They also cannot stand the idea of Trump launching a trade war (or a series of trade wars) --- Some would argue with Mark that there is a high level of discontent --- manifested in the energy of the MAGA crowd .... It is a sad failure of the left that as discontent rose, our side had nothing or not enough bodies to offer to the discontented --- the Communists in the 1930s and the lefties and Black Power groups of the 1960s also had something to offer --- but both tendencies blew it after 1969 --- (I would date it from then but I'm not sure about the Black Panthers self-destruction ....)
