Donald Trump has promised to liven up this year's Republican National Convention. But some of America's biggest corporations are bailing on the party.
Apple recently became the latest company to give the GOP's presumptive nominee the cold shoulder; it won't contribute money or products to the Republicans' big shindig in Cleveland this month. HP Inc. is also withholding support, while Microsoft is giving products only, not cash. Beyond the tech industry, Ford, JPMorgan Chase and United Parcel Service have opted to withhold support.

“I am amazed at how many people I know who cannot see this as the globalist elite fighting back against the will of the American citizen-worker-taxpayer.”
Agreed. Just like S&P downgrading Britain after Brexit, and just before the EU started tanking - NOT Britain.
At some point these actions become subversion. Take them down.
Ford is a fascist company. Supported the Nazi’s in WWII...
They also built factories for Uncle Joe.
President Trump should make sure no slack whatsoever is cut for these companies. Whatever they lobby for, he should make sure the opposite gets done.
The Bush family, going back to Prescott Bush was a Fascist sympathizer...who better than George H W Bush to head the CIA...lots of Nazi’s came into that entity.
Don’t use Apple products. Turn them back and ask for your money back.
Thank You!
Seems big business prefers the candidate who took the speaking-fee bribes.
I guess these companies don’t like doing business with Republicans.>>
no
I guess these companies don’t like doing business with Americans.
I am going to contact Amazon and will not be ordering unless my items are shipped by another means besides UPS. Who do they think they are and my Chase Credit Card. . .buy buy after I cash in my points.
OOPs bye bye
Hedging their bets like they haven't done in years.
Who are you voting for?
Tariff + Tax Cut = 0
Tariff always comes paired with an Income Tax Cut.
Foreign nations then pay for the Federal Govt,
not Americans.
There are going to be some tidy business opportunities, come Trump’s administration. God willing and the creek don’t rise.
Trump should announce a change in convention plans due to leftist violence threat. The convention will last one day for the nomination. Speeches will be given via the internet.
Kill a lot of birds with one stone.
Yeah, when’s the last time that happened?
If, for example, we put a $10 a barrel tariff on imported oil, how does that make a foreign nation pay for the Federal Government?
Asked and answered. But for you, I’m voting for Trump. Hopefully Larry Kudlow (on his economic team) will talk some sense into him.
Stop it with the accounting nonsense.
