The letter is meant as a political show of force for Kamala Harris in a tight race with Donald Trump. The first presidential debate is less than a week away.
Not surprised. They're not doing it out of some newfound sympathy for the plight of working folks, but because even they recognize that the chaos and instability Trump brings is bad for business.
After weighing the tax breaks and deregulation, the vast majority of corporations still continuously donated to the Christian fascist party throughout the last decade of open fascism.
Of course they don't like the idea of having to bend the knee and kiss the ring of King fascist, or the risk of being destroyed because they're arbitrary labelled too "woke" by a mentally ill cult, but the dramatically increased profit margins remain far too tempting for most.
Yeah, each one of them individually would be totally fine with it if they were being made King Fascist, but they can't allow anyone else to take the spot
I'm gonna need them to create an account, log in, enable notifications, write a cover letter, and come talk to me at my workspace in person and then fill out this form three times for me to give a shit about rich people's politics.
Fox was not a name I expected to see on there given all they've done to supercharge the right-wing, but I suppose even Murdoch isn't crazy enough to actually think that it is a good idea to put Trump back in office
Like the Liz Cheney endorsement, I feel like Harris's campaign should ask them not to. There's not a big contingent of pro-CEO voters, and that contingent is probably going to vote republican anyway, but there's a lot who sense their interests are diametrically opposed to the CEOs who've spent billions lobbying congress.

The donor class is willing to spend a lot of money to break those people and convince them that they'll only ever get oligarchic bullshit or the blatant incompetence and violent bigotry of Republicans from their government
I bet these donations were at least implicitly contingent on being publicly announced like this
