Subject to the whims of politicians in Washington D.C. and constantly under pressure from the well-funded and hugely influential oil, automotive and airline industry lobbies, the national passenger rail operator has been threatened with oblivion on several occasions.

Will the Trump corporate backlash make a difference? © Reuters What impact will the backlash to the storming of the Capitol have? Since the deadly riot in Washington last week, companies across America have come out against President Donald Trump and other Republicans who sought to block the formal certification of the presidential election results. Twitter said it was permanently barring Mr Trump from its platform, while YouTube, Facebook and others announced suspensions in response to calls to shut off his megaphone. Amazon booted Parler, the social media site popular with right-wing groups, off its servers, forcing it offline. New York City is taking steps to cancel its contracts with the president, the PGA of America is relocating its 2022 golf championship from Mr Trump s golf course, and other firms with ties to Mr Trump s private businesses, such as e-commerce platform Shopify and Signature Bank, have said they are closing his accounts.
