... When the White House chief of staff, Jeffrey Zients, met with dozens of top executives in Washington this month, he encountered a familiar list of corporate complaints about President Biden.
The executives at the Business Roundtable, a group representing some of the country's biggest corporations, objected to Mr. Biden's proposals to raise taxes. They questioned the lack of business representation in the Cabinet. They bristled at what they called overregulation by federal agencies.

Trump, or both.
