Help verify: AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson is President of Boy Scouts of America . . .

He promised Trump $22 bil investment in exchange for tax reform.

THIS might explain BSA's allowing TRUMP to create the hideous debacle yesterday at the BS jamboree.

They're getting slammed on the internets. But maybe they don't give a damn given who their President is....perhaps their allowing this was a means of helping TRUMP via Mr. Stephenson/AT & T

Needs verification...help?

...(video at link)

CEO Randall Stephenson says AT&T will step up its investments if President Trump delivers on tax reform.

IOW this guy wants corprats like AT & T to pay ZERO (or less) while the middle class & poor pay more + get MASSIVE cuts to Medicare and Soc Sec and other healthcare. This is Republican "tax reform" that Capitalists/Robber Barons want. It's part of their plan to DESTROY DEMOCRACY to save CAPITALISM.

That the guy is Pres of Boy Scouts of America (and their pathetically tepid response to that hideous debacle) says to me: FOLLOW THE MONEY, HONEY.

F*ck the kids, to HELL with teaching them RESPECT, SERVICE, *ACTUAL* LOYALTY, HARD WORK, or any goddamn manners. Stephenson wants his MONEY via ZERO taxes (not sure AT&T pays any anyway)

He's kissing Trump's ass and bribing him w/ $ to get favorable tax treatment in Trump's next budget. So you can bet your ass BSA is not about to slam Trump's ridiculous tirade at the Jamboree.
