I’ve done it at various jobs too in case someone was planning to blame me
Thanks.
That’s actually sarcasm. Google for “24 business hours” + “william pitt” for the origin. It’s a suggestion that it will never happen, despite desperate wishes that it will. Originally suggested that Karl Rove would be indicted for something or other in a timeframe that slipped over and over again.
Thanks for the clarification. I quit getting my hopes up too high when the Clintons kept getting away with all they did.
My recollection is that a FReeper undertook to study this issue -- laboriously cross-indexing the listed owners with the published donor lists and reporting daily on FR.
As I recall, before he gave up the task, he had found one in 300 of the terminated dealers to be a Democrat -- a Chrysler dealer in KC, MO.
Further, I recall one of the appointive members of the Car Czar group (Rattner or Bloom, I think) resigned their position several months in...without comment. Subsequently, he revealed in a (rarely cited) interview that "politics had played too large a part in dealership selection".
I'd agree that automobile dealers are disproportionately Republican. But I don't doubt, given this administration's history, that the terminated dealers were even more disproportionately Republican.
As this administration itself has been prone to say: Disparate Impact.
