Jane Lynch recently caused an uproar on Twitter, where she declared that “class warfare is ugly” and defended billionaires in wine caves.

She added, “Class warfare is ugly, Elizabeth Warren. Thanks for listening everyone.”

Lynch’s comment comes after Democratic Presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren ripped into South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg during Thursday night’s Democratic debate.
Warren stated in part that billionaires in wine caves shouldn’t be choosing the next president of the United States. She attacked the fact that Buttigieg held a fundraiser at the Hall Rutherford wine caves in California’s Napa Valley that according to the AP has “1,500 Swarovski crystals, an onyx banquet table to reflect its luminescence and bottles of cabernet sauvignon that sell for as much as $900.”
Warren stated:
“We made the decision many years ago that rich people in smoke-filled rooms would not pick the next president of the United States. Billionaires in wine caves should not pick the next president of the United States.”

Following Lynch’s comments, folks on Twitter would not be happy with the former Glee star’s take on billionaire’s in wine caves.
They should have an EQUAL say. But they do not. They have the POWER. The damned question was about RACE and who has the power b/c of financial influence, which Pete defended.
When does a plumber or waitress get to sit down for a private dinner with Pete? Answer: NEVER

What can you honestly expect from millionaires and billionaires? Let this nobody try to break it down.
It’s about the influence of money in politics – you know like Gordon Sondland donating 1 million to Trump then Trump did him a favor by appointing him AMBASSADOR. Ya dig?

Billionaires in wine caves can have little a oligarchy, as a treat

Whew.
Really wishing you had chosen not to comment.
Love your acting but this is a garbage take that completely misses the point and minimizes the corrupting influence of money in politics.
Class warfare is a constant. And 99% of us are its casualties. THAT’S what’s “ugly.”

Dear Jane Lynch,
Waitresses in diners and plumbers in your bathroom are not using their money to buy our elections and stop real change. Billionaires in wine caves are. https://t.co/ZmRj2UPr7b

It’s almost like that Jane Lynch tweet was part of a conspiracy to make people forget J.K. Rowling’s tweet from yesterday.
What is it with these wealthy white women?

LONG past time we stop letting fat-cat diner waitresses and Jane Lynch’s plumbers wield outsize control over our political system, and give struggling billionaires a little bit of influence. https://t.co/4aB6zmB1li
