This is the CEO of JPMorgan Chase being asked why they DIDN'T contribute to Trump's ballroom and the answer is basically that it's a bribe and they don't want to get prosecuted in the future.

Folks, if bribary is normal, does that make it OK?
It's perfectly legal for me to shit my pants during a meeting with my boss this afternoon. And because it's legal, that makes it moral.
In fact, if my boss doesn't join me by shitting his own pants, then he's a fucking commie.
That's right! I shit red, white, and blue! My doctor keeps acting like this isn't manifested patriotism, but I think she's just jealous. -farts the national anthem while coughing up blood-

I mean, kind of, in a pedantic sort of way?
Corporations have always contributed to inaugurals. It's just that Trump took the guard rails off. Obama and Biden limited individual corporation donations.
OK. Who else was solicited for bribes and didn't report it?
I'm surprised they had the restraint
Great, how much did they donate to the Trump library (the other open secret way to bribe presidents)?
