Several MSNBC anchors, including Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O’Donnell, directly called out parent company Comcast for donating to help fund President Donald Trump’s controversial $300 million ballroom. The White House revealed the list of donors last week, and it included Amazon, Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Meta, as well as Comcast, despite Trump’s repeated attacks on Comcast subsidiary NBC. Discussing these companies on her Monday night show, Rachel Maddow called Comcast out by name, telling viewers, “For every corporation—like our parent company for another hot minute, Comcast—that wants to pay for Trump to take a literal wrecking ball, excuse me, I mean an excavator to the White House, those public-facing companies should know there’s a cost in terms of their reputation with the American people.”
