The rich always gets richer after all. And it's no doubt that many of the leaders policies are more beneficial to the wealthy and elite.
The bad thing with American politics is that both parties are distracting people from the real issue. To both the American Left and Right, Billionaires are a protected class. When are people going to realize that billionaires are the enemy?
Most of the countries are like this. Leaders and officials are distracting on what's the real issue and problem of the country that needs to addressed and be solved asap. It cannot be helped that many of them are there to protect the wealthy and they will benefit from it as well. It's a win-win to both parties.
