It's because one, he has control over, so naturally, gotta put a stop to that. The other, he's sure won't happen, so it's safe to "support" it, in order to entice rubes into voting for him.

There absolutely should be taxes on the billionaire class: 50% capital gains over a certain amount, limitations on borrowing against stock assets, increased income tax on income over $1m, and no cutoff on social security tax, just to name a few. That class should not exist and taxes are a great way to move that forward.
We can’t trust politicians who are cozy with billionaires. Newsom has deep ties to lots of billionaires, including campaign finance. Billionaires are the enemy of working people and politicians need to treat them at least as a problem to be fixed if they want our trust.
