He's a trumper. We aren't supposed to like them remember?
where did i talk about the ceo in my initial post that you quoted? boeing is a public company, the ceo isn't the owner.
Just keep that same energy when talking about every other CEO/Business.

How does this make Obama corrupt?
The logic isn’t there man no offense.
He’s not in public office and won’t be again.
I’m against public corruption and personally find a lot of these public speaking fees offensive. Idk how you fairly addresss public speaking fees as this can be people’s only source of income. Someone also said the money goes to his library or foundation.
you're proving yourself to be ignorant of how public corporations are run. he's not taking millions from a CEO to speak at boeing, it's not the CEOs money. it's the corporation's money. who the CEO wants to vote for is irrelevant.
Politicians are, by necessity, products of the society they lead. Our politicians are "corporate whores" because we as Americans are corporate whores. You could pretend you're not all you'd like, and maybe you're not, but odds are youre just full of shyt.
Boeing is a perfect example. We see flying around the world like it's nothing as a god-given right to the point where traveling is seen as some sort of moral obligation. "Oh, you have to travel". It's engrained in our culture.

If Obama withdrew troops out of Afganistan as he campaigned on, didn't destroy Libya, Syria, and Yemen, do you think Boeing would be giving him $10 million for his library?
the fact that you can't objectively look at this situation just shows that your political blinders are too strong.
Obama, Bush, etc. both did the same, and more politicians continue to do the same thing.
He's not in public office NOW, but this (appears) to be a back hand payment for "services rendered" while he WAS in office.
if you can't be objective when Hillary, Obama and the Dems do something, then maybe you should carry that same energy when the corrupt republicans do something.
