It's really interesting that the media and corporate America are embracing a "movement" bent on destroying the very system that they can exist under.

It seems BLM and China are partnering up to destroy everything so that it could be reset in the way they want. Corporations may be kissing China's ass now in hopes they will be allowed to operate in this new utopia that China thinks they will run. And what candidate does the Chinese government want to win?

Corporate America really does not believe things will change. They are just trying to get points for supporting the current loud-mouthed social storm and they believe that this is a short term issue.

McConnell: Trump pick to replace Ginsburg on Supreme Court will get Senate vote

 

[Parley]

Ted Cruz said we need to nominate a replacement because we cannot have a Supreme court in chaos with all the problem the Democrats are planning to create before and after the election.
