    Meh.

    I’d say right now with as heavy handed as trump is being, it won’t take long to have a reason to cancel the rest in the next year.

    The only way they don’t all fold, is if they’re shown repeatedly that bowing to trump costs them money.

      When one folds they all fold. That’s why the first big one last year was so important.

      it won’t take long to have a reason to cancel the rest in the next year.

      Which has been said for years.

        Right…

        When it’s a slow trickle, they just raise prices and maintain profits.

        But when people do it en mass due to a specific action that the lose of subs can be tied to…

        That convinces shareholders to take action.

        Which is why I’m waiting for each to do something stupid.

        Like, a shit ton of rain over 9 months compared to 24 hours. We need to unite and be a monsoon too large to ignore that hits all at once on the same quarterly earnings report.

          My point is that they already have. Multiple times for years. They know you are willing to wait. That’s why they folded.
