Billionaire Republican vs. Billionaire Republican [View all]

Divide and Conquer: How the latest GOP propaganda is shaping the Republican agenda.

Fuck, I love the GOP Civil War. It’s like watching reality TV but with oil, guns, and a few sidekicks named Cletus.

In this latest episode of Republican-on-Republican violence, two of the most prominent oligarchs in Texas square off for a head-to-head match. Before we get into it, we need a little context.

Tim Dunn - Net Worth $2.2 billion.

Richard (Dick) Weekley - Net Worth over $1 billion

Tim Dunn - Amount spent on Texas politics since 2015 - $21,476,061

Dick Weekley - Amount spent on Texas politics since 2015 - $15,640,652

Dunn and Weekley are billionaires and have spent millions of dollars in Texas politics over the last decade. They are the same, two fat cows, each thinking they own Texas. They certainly own the Republican Party of Texas and have for many years.
