I personally know a floor manager at JC Penny -- a kind, quiet, reliable man who would not in a million years vote for Trump, much less hire him to be anywhere near a cash register or a POC or female customer.

Doesn't it put the firm's women and POC in a catch-22? -- if they leave right away it implies that they were hired for show, not for "merit". And if they stay they become collaborators.

Woman protester in red hooded robe, holds a sign saying "Nolite te bastardes carborundorum" -- in the Handmaid's tale translated as "don't let the bastards grind you down."
Internat'l Women's Day, Philadelphia, 3/8/25 Great turnout, with lots of cheers & honks. Surprisingly, this protester was one of the very few who directly referenced women's reproductive rights. Her sign: "Nolite te bastardes carborundorum" Handmaid's tale: Don't let the bastards grind you down."

Who owns who? Are the billionaires bowing down to DJT? Or are they reminding him that they now own him? A king or leader who displeases or defaults on their bankrollers can be dethroned or worse. Or sometimes it is the bankers who lose their assets or are thrown out of windows. Dicey game.
