Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) urged her Democratic colleagues to stop attacking the "oligarchy," arguing that the word did not resonate with most Americans.
Funny that she’s used the word “oligarchs” plenty for Putin’s bunch, but now thinks it’s too “coastal” when applied to American oligarchs. She’s never been concerned about people getting it before, but the moment it might describe America she’s very concerned. Not that they’ll misunderstand it, but that they will.

Yeah, at some part the conversation starts being about class conflict, and Slotkin will never go there.
