JPMorgan Admits It Shut Trump's Accounts After Jan. 6 Capitol Attack
- smt88 8mo agoUh... good? He used his money and influence for an attempted coup and then an attack on the capitol building that resulted in multiple deaths and hundreds of convictions for things like sedition. If a private business can't choose to stop aiding literal treason, none of us have any freedom of association at all.

- taylodl 8mo agoRepublicans have been the ones arguing that businesses don't have to do business with anyone for any reason. Are you saying they don't believe that standard should apply to Trump? If so, that sounds like hypocrisy to me.
- johng 8mo agoI think this is an OK standard for small privately owned businesses... like a bakery, a mechanics shop, etc. Obviously the rules would be different for services that are required and necessary. Ie. a telephone company, national ISP's, hospitals, banks, etc. Especially banks that received government bail-out funds. So, it's different to me.

- smt88 8mo agoSounds familiar. "Sorry maam, I know you're miscarrying, but you should really find a pharmacist that fills prescriptions for reproductive issues."
- taylodl 8mo agoConservatives have argued that healthcare providers shouldn't have to provide healthcare to people with whom they differ ideologically. I say they should be careful what the wish for.
- koolba 8mo agoNot quite. Conservatives argue they shouldn’t have to provide medical practices like abortion that violate their personal ideologies. They don’t selectively grant them for a subset of the population.
- smt88 8mo agoThere are thousands of banks in this country. They take money from the most despicable people. Trump was never in danger of being unbanked.
