    Could it possibly be that DC is north of Richmond, and “rich men” sounds like Richmond?

    I mean if you want to pander to people who are still upset that DC took away their slaves and who would prefer that they could call Richmond their capital, and all you had to do to get people to defend you for that choice was to toss in an awkward half-rhyme, why wouldn’t you?
