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!
Touchdown..!
Wow, what a bunch of DIRTY SCUM, the American Chamber of Commerce.
Hater of Americans, LOVER of desperate, diseased illegals.
Tom Donohue, scum bag, American Chamber of Commerce
"Separating Children From Families Must End Now" (article from that very scum bag in next link)
They turned leftist on us and actually don’t do much for business anyway. It’s time for them to fade away and die or go strictly local.
GOOD!!!! The CoC is the enemy of average Americans. They only want us to buy theur products and services. They don’t want to protect our jobs and way of life. They have been sellibg all of us down the river in favor of illegal alien cheap labor for years!
And don’t kid yourself, they’re sleeping with the Democrats too.
Whoever promoted the US Chamber of Commerce as a Conservative group has done a great disservice. Nothing but ‘Progressives’ around here wanting the Government to provide for the workers. They constantly promote Federal Government spending by saying, ‘it won’t cost you anything’! When I point out that tax revenue is fungible, it comes from us in the end, they are not pleased.
CoC and ALEC also are fundamentally bribe-arranging brokers.
I hope the West Palm Beach clubhouse has raised their standard of admission since then.
[[[A sign on his desk reads, Show me the money.
I want to give them all the deniability they need, Mr. Donohue told Washington Monthly magazine in 2010.]]]
Typical scumbag DC lobbyist. They financed the rise of the GOPe.
[[[Ms. Clark, with the approval of Mr. Donohue and the board, has been reshaping the century-old organization, including a campaign to recruit more small and midsize firms, especially in high-tech industries and renewable energy. The chamber has also shifted some policy positions that better align with the changing views of its membership. ]]]]
When all else fails, go left.
[[The chamber has acknowledged, however, that industry plays a role in rising temperatures. It has also proposed short-term policy changes to address climate change, such as increased federal research funding on clean energy. It still opposes broad regulations.]]
Tacking left. There’s money to be made after all.
Someone please explain to me why there is a Department of Commerce. Seriously.
Trump refused to shake his hand... Love it!
Not another pub with his guts.
Reminds me of the story of Sinatra meeting Mitch Miller as they passed in a big Vegas lobby. Mitch stuck out his hand and Sinatra refused and didn’t slow down, saying, ‘Just keep walking, A$$hole!’
OUTSTANDING comments BUMP! Thanks to all posters.
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...
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.
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.
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.
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.
