Historically the rich let the Dems have power every 8 years.
The Dems have to pay off the debt and clean up the mess the GOP made.
Fill up the piggybank so the GOP can come back into office and steal it.

But why do that? The GOP is done with the peasants.
They are useless eaters and just use resources that the rich want.
