Rolling Stone: “The Republican Party is but one seat shy of capturing the Senate and virtually a lock to take the House, possibly by a lot. They’re fighting to win not just a majority, but a governing majority to maximize their negotiating leverage versus President Joe Biden. Yet many political action committees, run by some of the country’s most prominent and presumably influential corporations, are sitting on piles of cash for most of the year rather than greasing the wheels of the Republicans in line to wield enormous authority over big business — i.e. them — as chairmen of key policy committees and subcommittees.”
“This stinginess could be remembered as the final act in the GOP’s slow-motion breakup with corporate America, a relationship-unraveling years in the making. It’s a jarring split that stands to reshape American politics, furthering the realignment of the Democratic and Republican parties and upending policymaking on Capitol Hill.”
