Yesterday's comment about not minding bonuses

Naturally, there are complications, implications and downright deviations. Over at Riehl's: 

Why Did Obama Name Dimon And Blankfein?
Why would Obama not mind Dimon and Blankfein getting huge bonuses?
Feb. 10 (Bloomberg) -- President Barack Obama said he doesn’t “begrudge” the $17 million bonus awarded to JPMorgan Chase & Co. Chief Executive OfficerJamie Dimon or the $9 million issued to Goldman Sachs Group Inc. CEO Lloyd Blankfein, noting that some athletes take home more pay.
Well, Dimon has given over $100k just to the DSCC. Plus individual candidate donations, most of which go to Democrats.
And Blankfein gives almost all of his donations to Democrats - $136k to $4k.
Why should Obama care, his party is getting its cut?
