wronglyprepaid commented on Uber broke laws, duped police and built lobbying operation, leak reveals   theguardian.com/news/2022... · Posted by u/colin_jack

Someone describe to me why politicians even bother to meet with Uber.

Why would Biden, Macron bother with this company, and not others?

Where is the 'money flow' happening here? Is someone being bribed? Was Uber funnelling money to a related cause?

I can understand ministers wanting to please a big up and coming company, sure, that's their job in some way, but not like this.

How does Uber have the ability to get the VP to 'change their speech'.

What's going on? That's not in the article.

Yes I agree, Biden is also very tough on corruption[1], historically so in fact.

AZ is nowhere close to being a Blue State. Barely went to Biden in 2020, yes, but Gov and Legislature are GOP dominated, and have been for some time. (And they have been very successful in drawing district lines to keep themselves in power).

Probably the best way to think of AZ's population is purple, but more red than blue in tint.

But this is only because of Trump's lies and Fox news collusion with Trump. If they gave Biden and honest wrap and told their viewers how historic a Biden presidency would be and how Biden would fight like hell to bring the prices of kitchen table issues down then he would have won Arizona in a landslide.
