I think he's touching on the fact that the rich and powerful are quick to avoid taxes and will keep leaving America as taxes on the "rich" go up and up.
But they always seem to leave a pinky toe in America and never fully leave. They want all the benefits of America but just want to avoid being taxed to death.
Obviously a lot of the super wealthy figures are so rich that money means nothing. They buy and sell in power; political or otherwise. So it's really hypocritical to see these rich people leave America (or move their assets out of America), remain a citizen, and keep their American political aspirations alive from another country.
