Simple. Trump is a nationalist and all nationalists are a threat to globalism.
Follow the money works, every time.
These people are criminals. They work for themselves. Our government is a criminal enterprise.
And now we are in the blacklisting phase. And all the pubbies now looking for mercy will be dealt with last!
Big corporations don’t get into open political warfare. Scoring woke points now and then ? Yes. But taking sides in such a divisive battle is a No No. Nothing to be gained and plenty to lose. I was surprised to see Marriott and Citi get into this. Do they not know 75 million people voted for Trump ? Likely much more. The only explanation like you said is threats. Retribution if they don’t obey.
This worked for the justice brothers. Shakind down businesses is lucritive business.
Wal-Mart suspending contributions to lawmakers who voted against electoral college certification.
Why? Because d they now they can.
That's the way I see it. Can't be anything else. NO business throws away half of its customers unless some mafioso threatens them.
“””There’s no coercion; these companies are enthusiastically doing these things because they want to.”””
You are correct.
These are the same corporations who enthusiastically gave hundreds of millions of dollars to BLM to defeat Trump in November.
These corporations want to totally destroy the Trump Brand Name of the Republican Party.
These corporations want to continue manufacturing their cheap garbage in their Chinese factories so they can make huge profits selling it the USA.
MAGA’s need to take a hard look at their needs and minimize their purchases of stuff.
These corporations do not care if the blue collar workers in the USA are starving. They only care about profits and huge salaries for the chief executives.
The iron fist of the CCP falls most heavily on those it owns. The MSM and global corporations long ago sold their souls to the CCP in exchange for 30 gold coins. They are owned by the enemies of America and do the bidding of their master.
Another thing is for all their huge advertising budgets, big corporations often misread public sentiment. Gillette learned that the hard way. They think it’s now universally accepted that Trump instigated the so called riots because the media is wall to wall with it, and the woke thing to do is punish Trump by denying his campaign financial services. These dumbasses will learn once people start boycotting.
Just wait until the 70 million Trumpers get in their face; economically.
“””I was surprised to see Marriott and Citi get into this. Do they not know 75 million people voted for Trump ?”””
But how many of these 75 million stay at a Marriot? Marriot is relying upon the corporate traveler for their principal source of revenue.
They want to because they want the government contracts, grants, inside info.
The same thing has ruined the corporations that ruined the universities....government money.
The pharmaceuticals, for instance.
Remember when General Eisenhower left politics in one of his last speeches he warned us against the danger of the industrial military complex.
That is exactly what we are fighting now. The military industrial complex has made Hillary and the Bidens very wealthy and if you think there are only two families profiting from them, think again.
I saw a long story just yesterday explaining how big agriculture is profiting from the one wold stuff. The numbers are huge.
Everyone that is important in manufacturing has huge investments overseas, either in their own plants or in contracts with overseas plants.
And the banks are in deep, both in financing and in banking the big bucks.
In other words, profits are more important than you and I and our freedom.
Because they feel safe
You’re seeing how fascism works. Large global corporations own the U.S. government pretty much from top to bottom.
It’s really that simple. Just go back and look at Joe Biden’s career. He was a corrupt b!tch on the leash of Delaware corporate giants like DuPont Chemical and MBNA Bank for his whole career in the Senate.
No, it’s purely ideological and planned/expected (The financial fallout). Short-term loss in exchange to open up China/cheaper supply chains again/Hb-1s flooding the workforce/Amnesty/social issues, etc... is too hard to figure out.
