It doesn't seem like simple greed at this point. Corporations and their officers have proven repeatedly that they can make plenty of money regardless of the flavor of national leadership.

No, this smells like fear to me. If these high-profile people back Trump and Biden wins, there will be very little in the way of consequences. But if they don't back Trump and Trump wins, he's going to need fresh celebrities to feed his gallows to make a point.

If TSF wins, get ready for loyalty oaths if you want to keep your job.
