They've been pushing nothing but Amnesty! And supporting EVERY pro-Amnesty candidate for office!

So naturally they were for Jeb! and against Trump.

I hope their influence continues to dwindle. And when Tom Donohue is dead and gone, we'll all be better off!

This story gives me hope that President Trump will deal with the coup participants as harshly as he should.

President Trump is correct. These people want an open border.

Eff the Chamber of Commerce.

Even at the local level, they push for personal taxes and bonds to fund what they want. Just keep feeding business with free stuff and they promise everything will be fine.

The Chamber of Commerce is a bunch of globalist traitors that should be hanged. They’ve been strip mining the accumulated capital of America for decades and auctioning off the country like it is a gigantic strip mall to line their own pockets for decades.

Sarah Palin in her 2011 Indiana speech actually called all of this out way before Trump.

The national Chamber SUED MY STATE OF OKLAHOMA because it passed some modest controls on the funding of benefits to illegal aliens. I have been anti-Chamber ever since. I have ensured that none of our local Chamber monies go to the national organization.

LOL. Worth reading to the end. Look who the chamber wants as it’s new leader:

“Several times over the past year, chamber officials approached former House Speaker Paul Ryan about the job. He declined, his spokesman said.”

the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the chief advocacy group for American corporations suppressing US wages.

Fixed it!

The US Chamber relies on an ability to promote members interests in government. With a hostile Trump, that ability is greatly reduced.

Their fundraising is especially reduced if Trump is so hostile, that if you’re on a list of major donors to them, Trump decides he’s NOT going to do anything for you.
