  1. Not all American corporations support 🟠tRump, but do appease him by wanting lower Corp taxes.
    In our Capitalist econ, the Corps continue their GREEDY pursuit of net PROFITS, even when #WeThePeople starve.
    #CitizensUnited is doing all the "wet work"❗️
    "Tomorrow" they'll "shrug"❗️ 🤷🏼

    >> #SCOTUS ruling on #CitizensUnited that treats corporations as natural persons for contributing money, but not for voting.

    The #SupremeCourt carefully contrived this narrow scope to pull wool over our eyes so that #corporate money could flow in.

    Had they granted voting rights to corporations that they treated as natural persons, all companies incorporate in the #US would be able to vote, and thereby expose the sham nature of the ruling.

    >> #ElonMusk: “With #ArtificialIntelligence we are summoning the demon.” 😳 … Why are we giving these anti-human #oligarch #sociopaths control over our entire lives? … This should be a bipartisan issue.

    It IS a bipartisan issue, and that issue is #corporate money that flows to both parties, #Republican as well as #Democratic, thanks to #SCOTUS ruling on #CitizensUnited that treats corporations as natural persons for contributing money, but not for voting.

  12. Decent chance the code has been cracked for each state to bypass Citizens United. I guess enough people in both parties are convinced they would win fairer elections, or anyway there's some reason that bipartisan support is growing quickly.
