Not surprised. They’re not doing it out of some newfound sympathy for the plight of working folks, but because even they recognize that the chaos and instability Trump brings is bad for business.
After weighing the tax breaks and deregulation, the vast majority of corporations still continuously donated to the Christian fascist party throughout the last decade of open fascism.
Of course they don’t like the idea of having to bend the knee and kiss the ring of King fascist, or the risk of being destroyed because they’re arbitrary labelled too “woke” by a mentally ill cult, but the dramatically increased profit margins remain far too tempting for most.
Fox was not a name I expected to see on there given all they’ve done to supercharge the right-wing, but I suppose even Murdoch isn’t crazy enough to actually think that it is a good idea to put Trump back in office
these fucking people are finally considering that the societal collapse trump would bring might be bad for business?
I didn’t know starting a global pandemic was one of the presidential powers but noted.
The pandemic kind of wallpapered over it, but at the time we were looking down the tubes at a recession and a trade war, and Trump had by that point gotten rid of most of the competent cabinet that kept him in check.
If a 2008 crisis hit, it would have been bad.
People tend to forget how badly he fucked up the pandemic response. Imagine his cronies instead of Bush and Obama’s people in '08. We’d be in a depression by now.
Operation warp speed was incredibly successful. Not sure where this narrative that the whole response was a disaster comes from. Too much MSNBC?
Since 2016, it continues to spiral down the drain with every additional moron voicing support for and planning to vote for your boy, Trump.
don’t be a moron. it’s going to take DECADES just to fix the supreme court problem trump and the GOP are 100% responsible for. that’s ignoring literally all the other damage trump has done to american society, which will also take generations to fix, if you’re being generous
maybe you could ask your beloved capitalist corporate overlords why even THEY see no fucking good coming from trump continuing his corpulent swan dive to the bottom as “leader” of this country
I don’t think the Supreme Court has a “problem”
The institution is working just as intended, arguably the only of the 3 branches.
The timing implies it’s in response to Harris’ new capital gains policy rather than any sudden crisis of conscience.
Like the Liz Cheney endorsement, I feel like Harris’s campaign should ask them not to. There’s not a big contingent of pro-CEO voters, and that contingent is probably going to vote republican anyway, but there’s a lot who sense their interests are diametrically opposed to the CEOs who’ve spent billions lobbying congress.

The donor class is willing to spend a lot of money to break those people and convince them that they’ll only ever get oligarchic bullshit or the blatant incompetence and violent bigotry of Republicans from their government
I bet these donations were at least implicitly contingent on being publicly announced like this
