Anyone remember the movie Brewsters Millions? I find it strange that someone would spend $140M of their own personal money to run for Governor when that job doesn't pay (and shouldn't earn) anywhere near that much money for the person. They mention that in the movie and it's because both politicians running for the office were corrupt and they were planning on stealing more than that on the job. So, why would Tom Steyer really spend that much of his own personal money? https://www.politico.com/news/2026/04/16/swalwell-exit-steyer-money-governor-race-00875079 https://www.politico.com/news/2026/04/16/swalwell-exit-steye...
