Rachel Maddow criticized the Trump campaign for creating the false impression that businesses support Donald Trump.
Mado said:
CEOs are not protectionist, isolationist or xenophobic. They believe in investing where there is the rule of law, not the laws of the rulers, regardless of whether business support will make a dent in any of these candidates in November.
In this debate this week, there was a concerted effort to create a perception, a false perception, that Trump has the support of the entire business community. That’s because his time in office compares favorably to President Biden’s, but not on financial matters. This is not true in the overall business environment, where
But when it comes to business leaders backing both candidates, that’s not the case.
But that misperception has its own political consequences, and heading into this debate all attention will be on the relative strengths of the two candidates and what they have to offer. Indeed, it pays to do these things well.

The Trump campaign has sought to spread the false notion that the former president is a great businessman and that other business leaders are supporting him. One thing Rachel Maddow failed to mention is the enormous damage the criminal and civil trials have done to Trump’s reputation.
Trump’s campaign is trying to reshape his image and revive the myth of his business acumen by spreading lies that the business community supports Trump.
It’s all lies. Trump is a business failure who is trying to fool the American people with illusions of success. The scams never end, and one of the bigger scams is Trump’s pitch to the business community to support him.
