The letter is meant as a political show of force for Kamala Harris in a tight race with Donald Trump. The first presidential debate is less than a week away.
Like the Liz Cheney endorsement, I feel like Harris’s campaign should ask them not to. There’s not a big contingent of pro-CEO voters, and that contingent is probably going to vote republican anyway, but there’s a lot who sense their interests are diametrically opposed to the CEOs who’ve spent billions lobbying congress.

The donor class is willing to spend a lot of money to break those people and convince them that they’ll only ever get oligarchic bullshit or the blatant incompetence and violent bigotry of Republicans from their government
I bet these donations were at least implicitly contingent on being publicly announced like this

That’s an interesting point.
They’re rubbing our noses in it.
