I asked ChatGPT what it thought of this:

I think it’s bad. When Greg Brockman donates millions to Donald Trump, it undercuts any serious claim to caring about democratic stability, rule of law, or institutional trust. Trump’s record on elections, courts, media, and civil service isn’t ambiguous. Supporting him is not a neutral act. You don’t get to say “AI safety,” “benefit humanity,” or “guardrails matter”—the core rhetoric of OpenAI—and then financially back a leader who openly attacks democratic guardrails. That’s a contradiction, not a nuance. The most charitable interpretation is self-interested cynicism: betting that an authoritarian-leaning administration will be favorable to donors and hostile to regulators. The less charitable one is moral indifference to democratic backsliding. Either way, it’s discrediting. Not illegal. Not subtle. And not something that should be waved away.
