    My perspective may be off but is €150000 a lot? I’d be curious to know if they donated anything to other similar Democrat events (and in other countries). I’d be more sceptical seeing Spotify donate to Trump’s actual campaign, but donating to the inauguration of a democraticly elected president doesn’t seem insane to me, even if the president is as awful as Trump.

      They did also resign joe rogan in 2024 to give him a $250 million dollar deal. He’s played a huge part in radicalizing his listeners.

      1. Doesn’t matter if it’s relatively a lot. It is objectively a lot of money. They could have donated it to a worthy cause like starving people.
      2. It’s Trump. They should have donated $0.
      3. It doesn’t matter if they’re democratically elected or not. Being elected doesn’t mean you’re good.
