I'm sad I didn't notice. I guess I'm post-racial?? Right???

I know Costco is a big corp and I usually get close to a panic attack when I'm there, but I still like it. The great equalizer. I'll hip check anyone - regardless of age or race - to get at a 1 cm x 1 cm piece of pizza. I rarely win the face off.

A truly American experience to be celebrated on the birthday of this land.

Idk who some of those people are but the one pointing to Costco isn't the CEO of Costco..neither is the one pointing to Koch. Zoom in.

Koch is pointing to Mike Pence, the vice president. I would readily believe him being in Kochs pockets, but this pic is simply inaccurate at best.

This doesn't irk me.

If you're an industry leader, and the executive branch of the government extends invitation, you go.

Many of the folks in the photo have their own, unique sins. Presence on initiation in the Whitehouse is not a sin, on its own.

The guy in the picture is Ben Carson, not someone from Costco. I can't tell if the caption is implying that Costco gave Ben Carson money or if they're just using him as a stand in for giving Trump money.
