What exactly is Blackstone's crime? "She made $9,000 a minute," wrote one Twitter user of Wesley LePatner, chief executive officer of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, who was killed in the Midtown Manhattan office shooting on Monday. "For most a lump sum of 9k would be life changing and she made it per minute. She was chief executive of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust and her sole job was making sure housing is expensive and that we all rent for the rest of our lives. Rest in piss."
LePatner leaves behind young children and a husband, and has posthumously been mighty venerated by colleagues and friends. So it's no shock that someone so high-performing, who worked for Blackstone, is the most threatening type of person to leftists on Twitter, mocked even after death.
