Liberal megadonor Alex Soros has been ridiculed for appearing in a ‘tone-deaf’ magazine feature showing off his ritzy high-rise apartment amongst other notable New York City Democrats.
In an article from The New Yorker, named ‘Power Houses Inside the living rooms of notable New Yorkers’, the 39-year-old appeared alongside his partner Huma Abedin.
Abedin is a former staffer for Hillary Clinton while Soros is the son of the 94-year-old Democratic megadonor George Soros.
Other notable Dems include the likes of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rev. Al Sharpton, and Kamala Harris’ stepdaughter Ella Emhoff, all of whom live in the Big Apple.
The pictures of them went viral on social media, with people poking fun at Soros and his recent focus on fighting oligarchy and Trump while inside a plush NoHo apartment with expansive views across the city.
Reverend Al Sharpton meanwhile was lampooned for posing for a photo alongside a painting of himself hanging in his Upper East Side living room.
Republican staffer Steve Guest poked fun at the picture of Sharpton, saying: ‘Of course Al Sharpton has a photo of just himself hanging on his wall.’
Democratic congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez,who famously wore a ‘Tax the Rich’ dress at the 2021 Met Gala, appeared alongside one of the world’s richest men in the spread, posing with her French bulldog in her East Elmhurst abode.
Emhoff, described in the article as a textile artist in the article, posed inside her incredibly colorful apartment in the Lower East Side of the city.
The article also featured the con artist Ana Sorokin, who faked being a wealthy heiress in order to access the upper-class of New York and their social circles, wearing an ankle monitor.
But it was Soros who came under the heaviest fire, with contributing editor to The Spectator Stephen L. Miller reacted to the photo of Soros and Abedin, writing: ‘Sure, let’s have that oligarchy conversation.’
Another commenter added: ‘Absolutely incredible. The poses. The ‘very serious’ facial expressions. Just a continuous scrolling gallery of the worst people possible.
‘Babylon Bee couldn’t do it better. The crown though is Alex Soros ‘investor’. LMAO.’
One other commented: ‘These photos have convinced me that there is no uniting the country. Ever.
‘The Venn diagram of these people and the people I live/ work around have zero overlap.’
‘Hey AOC and Bernie Sanders, here’s your Oligarchs. Dystopian weirdos!’, another said, referencing a tour of the country by the two politicians to combat Oligarchy.
One other added: ‘Democrats are so unrelatable. No wonder America loves them so!’
Despite the overwhelming majority of those involved in the piece being liberal, New York City Councilor Vickie Paladino, a staunch conservative, was also featured.
Other notable figures included legendary film director Martin Scorsese, composer Lin-Manuel Miranda and actor and model Chloë Sevigny.
Alongside the pictures, writer Noami Fry added that they came about as a throwback to a similar spread the magazine did in 1995.
She added: ‘ It was to celebrate the magazine’s centenary, the photographer Gillian Laub was asked to revisit a similar brief, but this time she included the inhabitants.’
Soros last week told the New York Magazine that he considered himself his father’s ‘loyal parasite’.
With the second Trump administration in full swing, Alex is hoping to use his father’s vast fortune to severely limit the president’s power.
His vague plan appears to be spending big in the upcoming midterm elections to elect Democrats and erase GOP majorities in the House and Senate.
‘We’re not subscribed to a strategy, because I think anybody that has a strategy right now is crazy,’ Alex said, adding that ‘now is the time to play defense.’
