A New York Times editorial board member lost his marbles over companies reportedly donating to GOP candidates who challenged the 2020 election results.
Times editor Alex Kingsbury mourned how the “pause” that companies placed on donating to Republican lawmakers who were 2020 objectors was “short-lived.” His blog, “Who Is Financing Trump’s ‘Big Lie’ Caucus? Corporations You Know,” appeared to take issue with who Americans decide they want to support in any election cycle if, in his view, they have the wrong politics. “Giving equally to both parties sounds good. But what if a growing faction of one political party isn’t committed to the rule of law and the peaceful transfer of power?” This statement begs the question of what Kingsbury thinks of this January 2017 headline from Politico: “House Democrats fail to muster support to challenge Trump’s Electoral College win.” A Jan. 6, 2021 op-ed published in Kingsbury’s own publication made an important point that he chose to ignore: “after the 2000, 2004 and 2016 elections, [Democrats] objected to counting electoral totals [too].”
In Kingsbury’s view, “[r]eturning to the status quo where corporate money flowed to nearly every politician elected to office isn’t just unseemly; it is helping to fund a continuing attack on our democracy.” Kingsbury belched up “kudos'' to the small minority virtuous companies who “stuck to their guns” and still refuse to donate money to the so-called “seditious” GOP’ers. "That’s what responsible corporate citizenship looks like. It’s also patriotic," he bleated.
