Why are business owners publicly turning against Donald Trump?
The business community is sick and tired of Donald Trump and his ilk, and they are letting their voices be heard before the election. They formed an organization called Business Leaders for Vice President Kamal Harris, and they've been sharing their stories. And you know, you think about what Donald Trump and his surrogates are even saying and doing right before the election. It tells you. Everything. I'm going to share with you some of the stories from these business owners who are going public and letting other business owners know that you got to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris, but just take a look at what went down on Friday where you had MAGA Mike Johnson take a trip in New York to one of the kind of swing congressional districts there in an area that has massive amounts of jobs as a result.
Result of the CHIPS Act, which was spearheaded by President Biden, which has created tens of thousands, potentially hundreds of thousands of jobs, not just in New York, but in swing states across the country.

I mean, he's a reporter from The Syracuse University News Network and take a listen to what MAGA Mike says here. He goes, he will get rid of the Chips Act on day one. And recall, he previously said that he was gonna get rid of the Affordable Care Act on day one. He says he's talking with Donald Trump about this stuff to get rid of it.
