Trump Aides Create Loyalty List Ranking Corporations by Support

The article reports that President Trump's aides have developed a scorecard that ranks hundreds of companies based on their level of support for the administration's tax cut legislation. This internal document is intended to assess the loyalty of various corporations towards the president's policies. The White House official confirmed the existence of this scorecard, which is being used to track the public statements and actions of companies in relation to the tax cut law. The ranking system is designed to evaluate the degree to which these businesses have actively promoted or endorsed the administration's tax reform agenda. This move by the Trump administration is seen as an effort to maintain a level of corporate allegiance and ensure that companies are publicly aligning themselves with the president's policy priorities. The article suggests that this scorecard reflects the administration's focus on cultivating a network of supportive businesses to advance its political and economic objectives.
