You should do this for other countries too. America isn’t the only country with an idealised view of what other people think of them.

Nor the television (Scottish). Nor the radio (Canadian and Italian).

They’re being shaken down. Same as Mark Zuckerberg being summoned to a meeting with Trump and the next day paying $1m to the same fund.

I’m betting these meetings went something like, “You don’t want a president as an enemy, do you? Cough up.”

And don’t think of it as a tax on the rich - it’s not going towards the benefit of the American people. It’s extortion.
