Leftist Media Triggered By Toyota Donating to GOP Who Objected to 2020 Election

The liberal media hate when big corporations step outside of the woke narrative and support congressional GOP members who thought the 2020 elections were shady.

Axios’s hit piece was headlined, “Toyota leads companies in election-objector donations.” The outlet took the time to attack companies for supporting political candidates it didn’t like. Automotive company Toyota reportedly led the pack with $55,000 in donations to 37 "GOP objectors." For context on how minuscule that is, Toyota’s entire estimated net worth is $236 billion, meaning Toyota’s political giving only accounts for a measly 0.00002 percent of its net worth.

Axios reminded readers in its “Why it matters” section how “[f]ollowing Jan. 6, huge segments of corporate America rethought their political-giving programs,” to shame companies that didn’t adhere to the trend. Leftist Raw Story made the Axios report on Toyota’s political giving even more ridiculous: “Toyota draws backlash for supporting GOP insurrectionists: 'So Toyota doesn't believe in democracy. Got it.'”

Any honest corporate government affairs shop will give to both sides and participate equally in the PACS and affiliated organizations.

Before Obambi, this was how it was done. Barry, however, used a thug punk from Miami, who, apparently, could have been Obama’s son and who attacked an innocent man because he thought the man was gay, to destroy this common and fair system.

Barry sicced his “Green jobs” czar, the commie Van Jones, on companies who participated in the Republican American Legislative Exchange Council” (ALEC) for supposedly supporting “stand your ground” laws. Corporate participation in ALEC had NOTHING to do with that issue. Several companies complied with Barry (oh, yes, Coca-Cola) and since then have given more to the left than to the right.

Again, any self-respecting government affairs shop plays both sides equally, knowing that what is today may not be tomorrow. Much progress has been made at the state level by having wussie corporations stop supporting Republican legislators, thus freeing them from their influence.

Toyota is playing it correctly.
