All large corpos support whoever is in charge because that's how they're allowed to remain large corpos. They don't have to also be the main supporter of some ethnic cleansing party.

I don’t remember Tim Apple or any other tech CEOs almost literally groveling at the feet of any other president besides Trump.

True OTH that party is mostly inconsequential and has no direct power. Tech companies enabling and legitimizing MAGA by openly supporting the movement arguably results in way more damage on aggregate even if they are only financing through outright bribery.

Because no other president has demanded tribute.

Corruption isn't limited to literal foot-grovelling.

The other presidents were law-abiding and weren't going to throw random tariffs or executive orders that could ruin these CEOs' businesses.

Pathetically the CEOs' concern was their company's market value/stockholder satisfaction, they "couldn't afford" any principled stance against tyranny, small or large.
