A quick glance at the front row of the inauguration seems to imply they are in fact a monolith. Not to mention how many corporations immediately bent the knee for this administration before even being asked.

The GP is talking about before the election, but you seem to be talking about after the election. Those are very different situations.

So some companies donated 1M to republicans. How much did they donate to democrats?

Your link spends a lot of time talking about donations to Trump's inauguration committee, which I understand happened after he won, and generally seems to not distinguish between contributions before and after the election.
