    “We’re acting exactly like Nazis in Nazi Germany and I just don’t understand why no one wants to do business with us!”

      In the aftermath of WW2, it was decided that all those companies that worked with Hitler building bombs and guns and other military goods, they were all innocent of wrongdoing. It wasn’t their fault, they said, it’s unavoidable – that’s just how business works, they said.

      To be fair, lots of companies wanted to do business with the Nazis. Most businesses now don’t have an issue with Trump being a fascist, but that it’s unpredictable. That’s bad for business.

      If we’re going off history, it’s bad news because fucking EVERYBODY still did business with the Nazis.

        Yeah because the Nazis weren’t stupid enough to alienate their own customers. MAGAs are.

          The MAGA voters were NEVER their customers. The extremely wealthy are and always have been the customer. MAGA has just been that “useful idiot” to get him in the White House. If you remember that the point is to run out all the foreign owned businesses and buy up what they leave behind for cheap, it’ll start to make more sense.
