    He did note that JPMorgan Chase has contributed funds toward past presidential inaugurations, something that has been “a normal thing that companies did.”

    Folks, if bribary is normal, does that make it OK?

        It’s perfectly legal for me to shit my pants during a meeting with my boss this afternoon. And because it’s legal, that makes it moral.

        In fact, if my boss doesn’t join me by shitting his own pants, then he’s a fucking commie.

            That’s right! I shit red, white, and blue! My doctor keeps acting like this isn’t manifested patriotism, but I think she’s just jealous. -farts the national anthem while coughing up blood-

      Corporations have always contributed to inaugurals. It’s just that Trump took the guard rails off. Obama and Biden limited individual corporation donations.
