You can’t get more hypocritical than a Limousine Leftist.
America’s richest celebrities - many of them black - took the Democratic National Convention stage to complain about…rich people.
“I’ve seen racism and sexism and income inequality and division. I’ve not only seen it, at times I’ve been on the receiving end of it,”Hollywood talk show star Oprah Winfrey - who became the world's first Black woman billionaire in 2003 - whined during her DNC speech on Wednesday.
With a $3 billion net worth, Winfrey continues to rank on Forbes’ list of wealthiest people in the world. This “victim of income inequality” owns six massive estates across the country, including 1,000 acres across Maui.
When one of America’s deadliest wildfires left thousands on the island homeless, last summer, Winfrey’s $52 million mansion was kept untouched. In fact, the “eat the rich” crowd she pretended to champion at the DNC wanted her “canceled” because she asked everyday fans to donate to her disaster relief fund, when she could’ve funded it entirely with her massive wealth alone.
To give Winfrey credit, she wasn’t always rich. In fact, she is championed as a “self-made” billionaire with an incredible rags-to-riches story. As someone whose American dream was achieved by hard work rather than government redistribution, you’d think she’d reject her friend Barack Obama’s “you didn’t build that” rhetoric.
Instead, she used the DNC stage to give a shout out to the Obamas, echoing the same hypocrisy former First Lady Michelle Obama had spewed onstage the night before.

“She and my father didn't aspire to be wealthy,” Michelle preached about her mother. “In fact, they were suspicious of folks who took more than they needed,” she told the audience.
That rule apparently excludes Democrat politicians and Hollywood celebrities who are part of the infamous “one percent.”
With a $70M net worth, the Obamas own four massive estates across America, including a Washington, D.C. home bought for $8.1M, a Martha’s Vineyard home bought for $11.75M, a beachfront home in Hawaii bought for $8.7M and a Chicago home bought for $1.65M.
The Obama’s have a net worth of $70 million. They own 4 luxurious properties:

Winfrey and the Obamas should practice what they preach by giving up their lofty mansions and splitting one crowded apartment with roommates like the 25-year-old overtaxed journalist writing this article has to do!
