Highly unusual list includes 533 businesses and trade organisations

Donald Trump has drawn up a scorecard for corporate America, ranking companies based on their loyalty to his administration.

The highly unusual list ranks 533 businesses and trade organisations based on their efforts to champion the US president’s “one big beautiful bill”, according to reports.

Companies that have fared well deployed a variety of tactics – often trumpeting the benefits of an individual policy, such as Uber’s celebration of Mr Trump’s “no tax on tips” proposal.

The scorecard, which Axios said will aid decision-making on corporate requests, comes as part of Mr Trump’s “America First” agenda and protectionist policies.

      Biden hiring Merrick Garland as AG is probably the thing that ended up putting the final nail in the coffin that was American Democracy. There were literally 100s of crimes to choose from and he just slow walked prosecution on any of them. Still not sure if that’s because of cowardice or just loyalty to the Republican party on his part.
