LOL if Toyota didn't shoot themselves in the foot when they named one of their vehicles TURD (TRD) I doubt this will hurt much.
And, if you look deeper you will find most major corporations play both sides of the street.
Also that video should get the propaganda prize.

Re: Toyota really shot themselves in the foot.
Toyota is in the same company as Intel, Cigna and AT&T, and they've even had the balls to donate despite saying they would not.

But there are a whole host of those companies who've suspended political donations for the time being, although I'm sure the squeaky wheels of Congress will soon demand more grease.

Not anymore. "Both sides" stopped being applicable last year.
Re: Toyota really shot themselves in the foot.
I'm all for making it toxic for companies to donate to politicians who worked and are working at undermining democracy, but I thought it was a bit silly to give brownie points to companies who suspended political donations *after* an election. Basically something they'd do anyways.Tunnelcat wrote:But there are a whole host of those companies who've suspended political donations for the time being, although I'm sure the squeaky wheels of Congress will soon demand more grease.

Re: Toyota really shot themselves in the foot.
But hey, they've got to "appear" like they a have a soul, even though they only worship the almighty dollar. They're just as afraid of losing business from Trumptards as they are from the libs. And besides, Toyota's quality has slipped over the years anyway, along with Honda and Nissan. I even had to lemon law a 2019 Toyota it was so screwed up THEY couldn't fix it.
