[PJ] Susan Rice has a message for corporate America, and it sounds a lot like a threat.
Obama’s scandal-plagued former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations sat down with former federal prosecutor Preet Bharara on his podcast Stay Tuned and laid out what Democrats have in store for businesses, law firms, universities, and media companies that have sought to accommodate the Trump administration.
It was a disturbing promise of government retribution.
Rice wasted no time getting to the point. "It's not gonna end well for them," she promised. "For those that decided that it was, you know, that they would act in their perceived very narrow self-interest, which I would underscore is very short-term self-interest, and, you know, take a knee to Trump."
| I intend to go and vote against the Democrats in November, dear Reader. Doing my bit to prevent enjoying their retribution forever and aye, amen. |
She claimed that those same institutions are already starting to feel the political winds shift — and are beginning to regret their choices. President Donald Trump's agenda, she said, is growing unpopular, and a Democratic resurgence is coming. When it does, revenge is on the menu. And it sounds like it’s going to be served hot.
"If these corporations think that the Democrats, when they come back in power, are gonna, you know, play by the old rules, and say, 'Oh, never mind, we'll forgive you for all the people you've fired, all the policies and principles you've violated, all, you know, the laws you've skirted,' I think they've got another thing coming," Rice said.
She invoked redistricting as an example of Democrats being too soft in the past — and made clear that era is over. "Just like when Trump thought, 'Okay, I'll redistrict, and the Democrats won't have the guts to play hardball,' they're gonna be surprised. Democrats have had a belly full, and we're not gonna play by, you know, the old set of rules, when these guys are playing by a very different set of rules."
