Presumably you mean Republicans? But then why did the Democrats bail out the top 1% 10 years ago?
This is just plain stupid divide-and-conquer. They're playing you on social issues (abortion, social justice, ...) while looting the 99%.

I'd rather at least have my freedoms while being looted than not.
Look up "divide and conquer". The basic idea is, to avoid facing your enemies all at once, you seed division between them (splitting them in different groups) so they fight among themselves, leaving you alone. That's what the top 1% (or rather top 0.001%) is doing to the rest - all around the world, just particularly obvious (and important) in the US.
Ranked choice voting is the only way to fix this (and getting rid of electoral college, increasing number of reps in house, and getting rid of gerrymandered districts), but that's all a pipe dream. I have to play with the cards I'm given.
