Several major companies that sponsored the 2012 Republican National Convention will not be sponsoring the event this year in Cleveland, where Donald Trump is expected to be officially nominated as the party’s presidential nominee.
Wells Fargo, UPS, Motorola, JPMorgan Chase, Ford and Walgreens all told Bloomberg they won’t sponsor this year’s convention, despite helping to fund the last GOP summit in 2012.

Why should companies be expected to fund a convention for either party?
Looks like I have some companies to boycott!
Haven’t posted on fascist book for about a month...today got on and posted...”Destroy America...Vote Democrat. That is all.”
Time to pull my accounts out of Wells Fargo and go to CVS.
My boycott list grows by the day.
Noted the names.
Eventually, I will be making my own clothes, and growing and catching my own food.
Walgreens fundraises at the checkout for a plethora of NGO and non-profit operations including LA RAZA. When I see the mat with all the logos and the cashier is trained to solicit...that’s when the other people in line get educated.
“Major companies decline to fund 2016 GOP convention”
Well, of course not. Offshoring manufacturing and suppressing domestic labor wages via open borders and uncontrolled illegal immigration is far more important to these multinational oligarchs than anything else.
Trump’s gonna put an end to this abuse of the U.S. worker, which is intolerable to those who exploit us.
Yep - and the CHEAP LABOR EXPRESS - - they're not funding either...
None of those companies comes as a surprise....
It’s bizarre to see corporations sponsoring the dims who in their deep hearts would nationalize them in a heartbeat if they felt they could get away with it.
This is a good thing, folks. Remind the voters who isn’t being corporate slaves and a slave to the big business conglomerate enclaves.
Seriously.
boycott bump for later....
