'It’s in my selfish interest for him to be very successful.” Why some CEOs are shifting their allegiance from Trump to Biden after the Jan. 6 Capital riot.

, Twitter Inc. banned President Trump’s social-media account. Publisher Simon & Schuster canceled publication of a book by Sen. Josh Hawley , who led a challenge to the Electoral College’s presidential-race results, and Airbnb Inc. said it would block people involved in the violence from booking rooms. Stripe Inc. stopped processing direct payments from Mr. Trump’s campaign website.

Companies from Marriott International Inc. to Walmart Inc. paused donations to dozens of Republican lawmakers who voted against certifying the Electoral College votes, with some others demanding refunds. “Words alone are not enough. We are committed to action,” wrote Dow Inc. CEO Jim Fitterling in a memo telling employees that the chemical maker was halting political giving to any Republicans who objected to certifying President-elect Joe Biden’s win for an election cycle—two years for House members and up to six for senators.

It was a far cry from the days when companies strove to appear apolitical, embodying—if not always living up to—the“We’re seeing a convergence of social issues that used to be outside the domain of what business executives would comment on,” said Judy Samuelson, founder and executive director of the Business and Society Program at the Aspen Institute, a think tank, and author of “The Six New Rules of Business,” which addresses such shifts.

'Spreading disinformation – whether about the election, public health or climate change – has real world consequences. The outlets that propagate lies to their audience have unleashed insidious and uncontrollable forces that will be with us for years.'

Time to bury the Trump Brand! The Trump/Kushner Klan is counting on the short memory of the American consumer but the unprecedented attack on democracy by a sitting President is an attack on the people and will never be forgotten. PariahKlan

If corporations are people according to the Supreme Court, the corporate people want punishment for the sedition and election fraud lies which attacked the corporate and working people of this democratic republic. AmericaOrTrump

BS

Maybe they should stop funding divisive, racist politicians like Trump. They got their tax cuts, but was it worth it?

I predict domestic terrorists will hit soft targets - away from places like the capitol. Trump will seize the opportunity to declare martial law, thereby retaining power. The Pillow Guy will be deputized as commander of ground forces. Change my mind.

Idiots, cause who,loves higher corporate taxes. No riot, 99% standing around.

Because destabilized government is not good for business...

That and Trump is poison, along with all his treasonous droog's in the GOP. They're all poison for anyone with Brand equity.

Too little too late. Trump told a big lie on the day he was inaugurated and they snow balled every day since. Yet & many more kept supporting him prioritizing greed over Democracy or even decency. You gave him a platform for all that's to come. Own your evil.

Perhaps Biden can create a plan to build minority-owned manufacturing plants here in U.S.? Kind of like Opportunity Zones from Trump Administration? It would be a win win - help minorities and create jobs.
