It’s called the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, not the American Chamber of Commerce. JTLYK
OUTSTANDING comments BUMP! Thanks to all posters.
The left will have a fit about this, and conveniently forget Hussein saying I won, and then Jarrett talking about getting revenge on those who opposed him in his second term.
The chill has hurt the U.S. Chamber, which for decades was the unmatched voice of industry. Its revenue has dipped, spending on lobbying and elections has fallen, and its large-donor pool has shrunk.

How can that be?
According to???? not only the majority of the country but the majority of the world HATES PDJT, so one would naturally assume that an outfit as big as and with so many fans, money would be pouring in to ensure the unseating of PDJT.
Kind of like the hotels and restaurants in DC suing because the ‘Trump’ hotel has the Presidents ‘name’ on it.. YET the people backing the suit will all agree that EVERYONE hates PDJT so, if that was the case why would any/everyone that hates PDJT flock to his ‘overpriced’ hotel/restaurant.
The old saying, can’t have your cake and eat it to comes into effect....if one part of the above is correct, automatically the other has to be incorrect.
Or something like that...
So punish American citizens instead, including by bringing in immigrants with diseases which they then pass on to the children of citizens in the public schools.
We did a better job of vetting potential immigrants back in the days of Ellis Island, before we had the capabilities we have now to check them for diseases.
The article while being neutral in tone does present a basket or reasons why the CC is not good for America. For instance, it is moving toward AGW.
“...find anyone to do those jobs fir MINIMUM WAGE...”
Once we stop aborting millions of American citizens, there will be plenty of teen agers around willing to wash cars, roof houses, etc. for minimum wage as starter jobs.
oops typo - fir = for
You know, I’ve never given the Chamber of Commerce a thought, but if Trump doesn’t like them, I don’t like them. I am that partisan. I love this President.
Agree with you 100%!
Reduce welfare benefits enough, and the underclass may become interested in working.
There are plenty of people who rabidly support them.
Consider how many people on this forum try to prop up their biggest hothouse cultured back pocket journalist.
The people whose careers they have funded are fully committed to open borders, yet there are those among us who insist that the areas where Chamber of Amnesty drones put up a conservative front make them palatable.
“...Chamber of Commerce...”
Watch Lou Dobbs if you can: the Chamber of Commerce is a globalist pro amnesty lobbying group who fund the campaigns of the RINO Paul Ryan types. President Trump is 100% correct to not like them.
Ah yes, the cheap labor express, selling the American worked down the Ganges or wherever.
AND YET, after 2 years, Trump has delived the most banging econonmy in 50 years, despite not listening to these selfish fools who represent the investor class.
The U.S. CHAMBER OF SOCIALIST COMMERCE
How else do you pay for businesses’ failed schemes, but with employee’s tax money.
GOOD NEWS ABOUT SUPPORT FOR THE COC.
POETIC JUSTICE.
They played the special interest game for decades, acting as though being aligned with them was being aligned with “free markets”, “capitalism”, ect., when those good values have always taken second place to their own selfish business interests, making them actually best at crony capitalism more than anything else. Well that game put them most in line with RINOs, who would talk conservatism on the campaign trail and start doling out the federal spending to the interests of their members in the Chamber of Commerce as soon as they get into office. They knew the Bush family were their friends. They were not exactly antagonistic to big spending Democrats either. They lost. We won’t weep for them now.
“the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the chief advocacy group for American corporations.”
yes and no. While hundreds of thousands of American businesses are represented by the CoC, the leadership of the CoC is exclusively multinational corporations with little to no loyalty to America.
They are not socialist, Democrat or Republican in their philosophy, but “internationalist-corporatist”, in that they want a one world government run by corporations, or corporate sectors.
They also embrace many socialist ideas, but solely to either save corporations money, or to lower their costs, by making workers pay their own retirement and health care.
If you want to see what life under them would be like, think a combination of RoboCop and the original Rollerball.
Totally agree. Local chambers are expensive and useless.
