Few companies have been as intimately tied to the Democratic Party in recent years as Google. So now that Donald J. Trump is president, the giant company, in Silicon Valley parlance, is having to pivot.

The shift was evident a day after Congress began its new session this month. That evening, about 70 lawmakers, a majority of them Republicans, were feted at the stately Smithsonian Arts and Industries Building, where they clinked champagne and bourbon glasses and posed for selfies with the 600 guests assembled in their honor.

Google trying to become a new pimp for the GOPe whores. Is that hard to say NO??? When I see some conservative google daily what ever you call them I might change my mind.

Google wants to capture everyone’s most sensitive information to help to their friends.

Just remember Google employees donate at a 99% rate to Democrats.

ATNYT (Anti-Trump NYT) say this now? Of course, the "few" they mean are.... themselves.

These people are disgusting. They are in office at the taxpayer’s expense. President Trump needs to shut down this kind of fraternizing,

[VermithraxPejorative]

The company that censors conservatives.

The retort from the GOP should be: "It's a good thing you already renamed the company Alphabet, because we are going to break you up into 26 pieces."

[polymuser]

Any Republican fraternizing with Google is a RINO. Period.

Identify, investigate, illuminate, ridicule, repeat.

Has Google registered as a lobbyist?

Or are the American people expected to believe no business was discussed at this sponsored event where government servants were “aggressively wooed”?
