Trump's Loyalty Scorecard Ranks 500 Firms by Policy Support

- White House unveils a ranking system evaluating corporate alignment with President Trump’s policies. - Highly supportive firms like Apple and Nvidia gain financial benefits, while others face risks. The Trump administration has introduced a “loyalty scorecard” to assess over 500 companies. This system ranks firms based on their alignment with President Donald Trump’s initiatives, including his flagship legislation, the “One Big Beautiful Bill” (OB3). The White House confirmed the system on August 15, 2025, which evaluates corporate loyalty using factors such as public statements, social media activity, and executive participation in administration-related events. On August 16, 2025, Cryptopolitan reported that the scorecards categorize companies as having strong, moderate, or low alignment with the President’s agenda. The administration rewards highly supportive corporations with benefits like policy exemptions, government contracts, and export licenses, while companies categorized as less loyal face potential financial drawbacks. Notable examples of favorable treatment illustrate the financial incentives. Apple’s alignment with the administration led to tariff exemptions and incentives after CEO Tim Cook presented President Trump with a gift and pledged a $100 billion investment in U.S. manufacturing. Similarly, Nvidia and AMD secured export licenses to China under an agreement requiring the U.S. government to receive 15% of revenue from those sales, a deal President Trump praised for its unique structure. In addition, other companies, including Uber and AT&T, have earned distinctions as “good partners” by openly praising administration policies and tying their business strategies to Trump initiatives. However, Cryptopolitan also highlighted that the “dynamic scorecard” creates market uncertainty. Critics compare the system to industrial policies under authoritarian regimes, emphasizing the risks of political interference and favoritism in business operations. As a result, investors face growing unease about the consequences for firms that choose not to align with the President’s agenda. According to the latest market data from August 16, 2025, at 19:08 UTC, OFFICIAL TRUMP (TRUMP) is trading at $9.13. The 24-hour trading volume shows a 0.066% change.
