This is not the worst thing the Trump Administration has done, but it is outright corruption. He is using his office in his officially capacity to reward the people who give him money.
Every Congressperson who gives a shit about the country should skip the State of the Union farce. The SOTU is always a farce (as my annual whine attests, see below), I really don't care if the ridiculous traditional of a ceremonial presidential speech dies with the Trump presidency. But giving him this kind of platform to reward his donors while making a mockery of the office doesn't deserve anyone's time.
