Donald Trump's inauguration fund is set to top the $107 million it raised in 2017 - which was nearly double the $61 million raised by Joe Biden in 2021. Corporate America is lavishing the president-elect with cash, hoping he'll support their interests, and let bygones be bygones regarding statements and actions against him over the past four years.
Major companies that walked lockstep with the establishment in denouncing Donald Trump after the 2020 election and the January 6, 2021 chaos at the Capitol have pulled a major about-face amid his comeback, giving generously to his inauguration fund and hoping he’ll forget their statements about the “threat to democracy” he and his supporters purportedly posed just four years ago.
Who are the biggest corporate flip-floppers, and what do they want from Trump? Here's a breakdown:
Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America: Big Pharma trade group donating $1 million (which means access to exclusive VIP events, including black tie ball and personal “candlelight dinner” with the Trumps). In 2021, PhRMA CEO Steve Ubl said the events of January 6 “violate the values of our nation” and canceled donations to Republicans rejecting the 2020 vote’s outcome.

The president is controlled. In some ways so are we, but WE CAN STILL DESTROY THESE COMPANIES! DON'T USE THEM! BOYCOTT! LEGAL NONCOMPLIANCE ON ALL THAT IS SELF-DESTRUCTIVE OR STUPID!
Yeah, riiiiiiiiiight. But if the collective had an intelligence quotient over 10. . .
I can dream. On the other hand, going along with the crowd; which the collective tends to do, can be deadly on occasion. Then I can have my cheaper rent and less traffic.
Never mind.
