Tom Steyer is an actual billionaire. But he’s a progressive, so that doesn’t actually matter. No, really:

Hey @MerriamWebster, can we get some clarification on "rich"? https://t.co/bMlQf9cTdq

rich: having a great deal of money or assets; wealthy.
Yeah, he's rich.

Only progressives begrudge wealthy people their wealth. Enjoy trying to distance yourself from the mentality you’ve helped to cultivate, Tom.
