8. Am I missing something here with all these companies kissing his ass?

Is this really about fear? These companies are owned by people that are quite wealthy. trump spitefully stopped USPS delivering Amazon packages,. Bezos had to find other ways to deliver packages, he got more of his own trucks and probably increased independent contractors- but he is still thriving.
All of these people and their companies will be OK. As long as trump hasn't graduated to Putin's level of CEOs falling out of windows - they will be fine. I thought the same about republican politicians in trump 1.0. So what if you lose "your" seat. It's not your seat anyway, it's the people's. Most of you go on to have more lucrative careers after leaving government anyway.
All of you will be OK.
The American people will not.
