There is a myriad of entities, self-interests and parasitic entities who corrupt the entire U.S. body politic. However, at the epicenter of all of them is one man, Tom Donohue, the head of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The Coc is the legislative influencing firm behind all of the crony capitalistic and Wall Street schemes.
In a recent article, Donohue steps out from behind the mahogany door and decries the frontrunner of the presidential race.
(Via Wall Street Journal) The head of the nation's biggest business lobby inveighed against presidential candidates singling out immigrants, ethnic or religious groups, highlighting divisions among supporters of the Republican establishment and the party's leading candidate Donald Trump.
"There are the voices, sometimes very loud voices, who talk about walling off America from talent and trade and who are attacking whole groups of people based not on their conduct but on their ethnicity or religion," Thomas Donohue, president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, said in a speech on Thursday. "This is morally wrong and politically stupid." (link)
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is not even remotely similar to the local Chambers' of Commerce that most people might be familiar with. The U.S. CoC sets the legislative priorities for congress and tells Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan what to do.

Payback is a Bitch.
Well, somebody who thinks the way of dealing with financial problems is to declare bankruptcy several times probably really isn’t into commerce anyway.
Big employers of illegals and GOPe contributors are very nervous. Good.
Chamber doesn’t care where the bodies come from, they are all slave laborers to them.
Good!!! You rotten SOB!
Most sane US citizens will regard this as the best possible endorsement Trump can earn.
Trump already told them that sending jobs abroad means paying a 35% import tax on what comes into the USA.
Trump is for the close to 100 million out of the workforce.
To make America great he has said we need to be more than a service economy, we can’t lose 505 billion to China, 90 Billion to Japan, and 70 billion USD yearly. We need people working to pay down the Debt, and take care of the future of Social Security, the Vets needs, rebuilding the military.
In other words the Traitors at C of Whores know Trump is going to get things done not sell America’s real patriots out for cash campaign donations. The Game as Trump says is OVER if its President Trump.
Just wait and see how many people Reagan Democrats will vote for Trump if he wins the Nomination.
My understanding is Trump reorganized 4 out of over 400 companies under chapter 11.
Do you have info to say otherwise, I'd be interested to learn.
Many many blue states will come over to Trump. JMHO!
That is a big reason people like Trump.
The Donald is ripping the varnish off the Establishment and we're getting the raw truth now. It is both an ugly and beautiful thing.
Canadian born hardest hit.
HOORAY Trump. (another whiney collective = another R E A S O N to vote)
C’mon November
I’d be deeply saddened if Tom suffered a tragic “accident” at the hands of those he wishes to flood this country with.
For about a microsecond.
Rising wages and falling unemployment used to be desirable things that our government and industry at one time promoted. The term for this situation was prosperity.
All that has changed because the combination of rising wages and falling unemployment is now considered a crises by the Establishment and the only solution is to flood the US labor market with culturally incompatible wage slaves from really awful places. Most of them hate America and NEVER assimilate.
Shows how little you know about business. Chapter 11 keeps the company operating, people keep their jobs, until through restructuring the company becomes viable again. You seem to think it is just the company closing its doors and the owners pocketing the cash. Trump personally has never been bankrupt.
Youbetcha!
The Chamber of Commerce needs to be the first anti American institution to crumble under the boots of American revolutionaries, right after the GOPe gets crushed. They’ll be hiding together.
