      Idk who some of those people are but the one pointing to Costco isn’t the CEO of Costco…neither is the one pointing to Koch. Zoom in.

        Koch is pointing to Mike Pence, the vice president. I would readily believe him being in Kochs pockets, but this pic is simply inaccurate at best.

      This doesn’t irk me.

      If you’re an industry leader, and the executive branch of the government extends invitation, you go.

      Many of the folks in the photo have their own, unique sins. Presence on initiation in the Whitehouse is not a sin, on its own.

        The guy in the picture is Ben Carson, not someone from Costco. I can’t tell if the caption is implying that Costco gave Ben Carson money or if they’re just using him as a stand in for giving Trump money.
