GET OVER HERE... and Donate!
Hmph. I Scorpion have seen realms rise and fall. I've witnessed treachery that would make even Quan Chi blush. But this? This is a new level of... foolishness. These Earthrealm corporations blinded by the shiny promise of Trump's 'Make America Great Again' (again?!) threw mountains of gold at his inauguration. A record 239 million! They thought they were buying influence a 'Get Out of Tariff Free' card. They should have remembered: 'Vengeance will be mine!'
A Seat at the Table... or a Hot Seat?
These corporate overlords from General Motors to Meta lined up to kiss the ring. They dreamt of deregulation tax cuts and a world where money flowed like the Netherrealm's lava. But Trump that sly dog had other plans. He used their donations to fuel his ego build his library (likely filled with only books about himself) and then… BAM! Tariffs! Like a spear through the chest his economic policies turned against them. Foolish mortals they should have known better. 'To hell with you!'...and your stock prices.
Tech Titans Thrown into the Pit!
The tech sector oh they are particularly amusing. Zuckerberg Bezos Cook – all desperately trying to appease the man who once called them names and threatened their empires. Millions donated hoping for a friendlier White House. But now? They're facing tariffs on chips antitrust lawsuits and a regulatory climate as pleasant as a Sub Zero hug. They should have focused on building a defense not begging for mercy. This is their 'Flawless Victory'… of stupidity!
Big Macs and Big Mistakes!
Even the food industry got in on the act. McDonald's hoping for continued favor donated a million! But now they might face the wrath of that Kennedy fellow who wants everyone to eat 'healthy'. And what about those tariffs? Will consumers still be able to afford their precious McNuggets when the prices skyrocket? Perhaps they should have invested in a better business strategy instead. 'You're next!'...to go bankrupt.
Retailers Feel the Tariff Burn!
The retailers those merchants of materialism were wary from the start. Target Walmart even they succumbed to the lure of political favor. They gave they lobbied they pleaded. But the tariffs are still coming threatening their supply chains and consumer confidence. It appears they will soon experience a 'Fatality' if they fail to act accordingly and stop being so foolish. What a load of garbage! It is always important to have a plan B.
Finance Finds Itself in a Financial Fight!
Finance was an interesting one. With all these massive corporations donating huge sums of money to Trump it does make you wonder how that will reflect on society as a whole. They are currently in a financial fight to get rid of tariffs and they might experience 'Brutality' to get there. This may be a bit too much for them and will be difficult to deal with.

Why would they ever donate to these political campaigns to begin with?!

I knew something like this would happen. You can't just throw money at problems and expect them to go away.

This is what happens when companies prioritize politics over good business practices.
