Let’s form a club of boomer, anti-democratic, rightwing-extremist, power hungry narcissists, and invite them to a private island and have them get stranded there because the flight authority botched traffic control (due to budget cuts, obviously).

You could, maybe, try to make the argument that the use of the term “pro-business” is not meant in a laudatory sense. However, I find even this to be a stretch and, especially, if the article is written for an international audience.
