US business leaders set to break record on donations to Trump inaugural fund
- rf15 2y agoIt is interesting how much business leaders feel the desire for such a move. I assume it means they are scared of the consequences of not getting on his good side early. This in turn though could also very well mean that the US will slide even deeper into oligarchic territory.
