The dollar amount here is not large (though it's the most they're allowed to give by law). More significant is the loud public signal of support from a company facing antitrust action, part of a duopoly in political advertising. Each of these politicians will pay Google a fortune
Google's ability to maintain a highly pro-Trump public policy stance, while mollifying a very liberal workforce, is a testament both to the company's political finesse and the prodigious rationalization powers of its pampered employees
Imagine how easy it would be for Google, supposedly a disinterested member of our political advertising duopoly, to not make such highly symbolic donations to key Republican races two months out from a pivotal election. And yet they do it, and their employees let them do it.
I'd be interested to know if Apple has made similar donations, do you happen to know?
No, neither Apple nor IBM have a political action committee
