Headlines like this are a good reminder of my prime directive: Don't donate money to political parties. Both Harris and Trump have billionaires in their corner and they don't need your money.

Instead, donate to your friends' mutual aid requests or invest it in your own stocks and investments. These candidates aren't going to do anything meaningful to change your station in life, but they will make a trillion dollars appear out of thin air overnight to avoid a major drop in the stock market and your $10-$20 could mean the difference between skipping a day of food and eating for someone you know and love.
