How many millions did they give? I know of the one million for the inauguration. Do you think one million is much money for either Apple or Trump?

I mean ideally I wish nobody would give Trump money, but I believe it was understood at the time that if you’re running a large tech company and you want it to still exist after the Trump inauguration, you give him a million dollars as a present. Hence why they all did it, million dollars each.
Kinda shit situation to be in where the incoming president can just fuck everything up for your trillion dollar company out of spite, so the million dollar bribe suddenly seems like a literal cost of doing business, no different from taxes or material costs.
Of course as someone who is NOT running a trillion dollar company, it would’ve been more hilarious to see them all reject Trump and then squirm.

It wasn’t “understood”. They all wanted to stand on the dais. They all unbanned him from the platforms. They all threw their weight behind him as a candidate.
They are supporters of his. The whole “boo hoo, I only run a trillion dollar company so I cannot stand up to Trump” is a horse shit ass, bitch ass excuse. These people have more access to wealth, legal help, and other resources than any other people in history. They chose this.

Such argument, very informative, wow. Maybe don’t attempt an argument if you don’t actually have anything to say.
