Trump's inauguration is today. He beat Kamala Harris in an election that many say the outcome was decided by idiots. Trump voters. But now he's on his way to the White House and the suck-ups are going crazy. To the tune of around $500 million by this summer. Remember when corporate CEOs and those in Congress, even some Republicans, were mocking and ridiculing Donald Trump? Apparently this same group has gotten Trump religion and are now going for the jugular. That, of the American public.
"By stockpiling so much cash, Trump is signaling he doesn't want to be seen as a lame duck in his second term, and is ready to help political allies, punish opponents and help Republicans keep full control of Congress in 2026."
That is so frightening that it should rattle the cages of the Democrats who have sat on their butts for years and let Republicans take control of this country. It dates back to when Debbie Wasserman Schultz slept through the period where the GOP was winning state and local offices throughout the country. It still haunts the left because it is these very offices that have been so instrumental in gerrymandering and winning elections for the right. That was in 2016, over eight years ago, and the Dems are still flailing in their political decisions.
I won't bore you with the atrocities Donald Trump has committed in the last ten years because if you don't already know you have been under a rock or had your head in the sand so not worth talking to. The facts are out there for all to see, yet an American public still grovels at his feet. One of the most astonishing happenings is the fact the U.S. working class is flocking to his fold, and they are the very ones who will suffer the most under Trump. They have nothing to offer him so he would turn on them in a heartbeat.
Axios says everyone is coming to Trump with the goal a half-billion dollars. Here are the receiving accounts...
"They include the president-elect's inauguration account, the MAGA Inc. super PAC, a political nonprofit called Securing American Greatness, the Republican National Committee and Trump's presidential library fund."
There's more...
"The donors run the gamut: from health care to agriculture, insurance, financial institutions, tech and cryptocurrency investors."
This is a significant reverse from the Donald Trump of the January 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol, after which, "major GOP donors and corporate interests vowed to either pause or stop donations to Trump or congressional Republicans because of the plot to try to overturn the 2020 presidential election." Some came back but, guess what, the one who never forgets kept a list of deserters which will be added to his laundry list of those to get even with.
The future Oval Office lunatic even makes his case by threatening...
"You guys made this amount of money last year and you're gonna make so much more now because of me," Trump told the representatives of one company, according to a confidant who heard the story from the president-elect.
And then he blurted out...
"But when I needed you, where the f**k were you? You weren't with me and maybe you were with her," referring to Vice President Harris, whom Trump defeated in November.
And it all ends with the most outlandish of expectations. Donald Trump has let it be known that this is a "one-way street." You generously give to him but don't expect anything in return. And do you know what, the corporate world has said, oh well, he doesn't mean that and they keep dishing out the money. Let me repeat: 'Trump says he's not for sale...BULLSHIT!
