If they set their institutional racism aside, they will realize that they do better under Democrats and they're not at risk of authoritarian thug dictator wannabes single-handedly sidelining their businesses.

Money talks so it'll be interesting to see how things play out. Will they continue propping up refuglikins who are trying to turn this country into a fascist theocracy that is shunned by the world? How do they think the USD will fare if this instability continues?
