Seems kind of fake. Like a whitewash so we won’t tax the rich. After all she is a private banker. She is by definition one of them.

I have also rubbed shoulders with the wealthy. They really love money and are more like trump than normal people. Almost universally are horrible shallow greedy selfish people.
