His supporters don't read.
His followers don’t reed. :lol:

This sums it up. It's not as if his base is like that of The Atlantic or The Nation. They're pathologically anti-intellectual, so it doesn't even make sense why he'd try to communicate with them via a blog. Twitter was the perfect platform for him because he could spit the a couple of sentences on it and prompt a reaction from the media and his followers.

For the record, this is true about Twitter in regard to a lot of political figures and issues.

JPMorgan resumes political giving, freezes out Republicans who contested 2020 election

JPMorgan Chase will resume making political donations to U.S. lawmakers but will not give to Republican members of Congress who voted to overturn President Joe Biden’s election victory, according to an internal memo on Friday seen by Reuters.
The bank was among many corporations that paused political giving following the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riots when supporters of former president Donald Trump tried to stop Congress from certifying the election.


Just hours later, 147 Republicans, the vast majority of them in the House of Representatives, voted to overturn the Electoral College results which Trump falsely claimed were tainted by fraud.
Following a review, the country’s largest lender will this month resume giving through its Political Action Committee (PAC) but will continue its freeze on donations to a “handful” of the 147 lawmakers whom it had previously supported, the bank said.
The pause will last through the 2021-2022 election cycle, which includes November’s midterm elections, after which JPMorgan will review whether to resume contributions to the lawmakers concerned on an individual basis, it said.
“This was a unique and historic moment when we believe the country needed our elected officials to put aside strongly held differences and demonstrate unity,” the bank wrote of the Jan. 6 vote to certify Biden’s win.
JPMorgan noted that its PAC is an important tool for engaging in the political process in the United States. PACs are political committees organized for the purpose of raising cash to support or in some cases oppose election candidates.

“Democracy, by its nature, requires active participation, compromise, and engaging with people with opposing views. That is why government and business must work together,” JPMorgan wrote.
As part of its revamped spending strategy, the bank will also expand donations beyond lawmakers who oversee financial matters to those active on issues the bank considers “moral and economic imperatives for our country,” such as addressing the racial wealth gap, education and criminal justice reform.

Since the initial January backlash, corporations have been grappling with how to resume PAC spending, seen by lobbyists as important for gaining access to policymakers, without alienating other stakeholders, including their employees who fund the PACs.
Other big financial companies that paused donations have slowly resumed spending. Morgan Stanley’s PAC resumed donations to some lawmakers in February, while the American Bankers Association PAC, one of the biggest in the country, has also started giving again, federal records show.
While JPMorgan did not name any lawmakers in its memo, the bank’s new policy risks alienating some Republicans with sway over banking policy, some of whom are already angered by its active stance on issues like climate change and racial equity.
JPMorgan’s PAC gave nearly $1 million to federal candidates and committees backing candidates during the 2019-2020 election cycle, according to the Center for Responsive Politics (CRP).
Of the $600,300 it gave to federal candidates, nearly 60% went to Republicans and the rest to Democrats, according to the CRP data, a mix that is likely to swing further to the left as the bank supports a broader range of social and economic issues.
Commercial banks overall have ramped up political spending in recent years, dishing out $14.6 million to federal candidates in the 2020 cycle, the second-highest amount since 1990, the data shows.
Following the 2008 financial crisis, that mix favored Republicans but in recent years banks have increased spending on Democrats as they look to rebuild bipartisan support in Congress.

Keith is mistaken on how the justice system really works. The DOJ isn’t afraid to indict criminals, the DOJ is only empowered to go after certain criminals. The Confederates were never punished. In fact, they flourished. They prospered.

There was a thread on this forum this past week that stated that credit card bonuses were funded by poor people.

To lose the support of JP Morgan is big for any politician. But JPM took this where it needed to go. They took away their money and didn't stop at Trump. :yes:
