Nearly 150 of the top people in the tech industry and others, joined in harsh criticism of Donald Trump’s ‘plan for America’
“We have listened to Donald Trump over the past year and we have concluded: Trump would be a disaster for innovation.”
This prestigious group of men and women pointed towards several factors which make Trump a danger to continued development and the success of the tech industry. They pointed to Trump’s opinion regarding immigration; many companies rely on immigrants for innovation. They fear that his intent to shut-down parts of the internet to prevent ISIS from using encrypted messages. They believe it would harm the industry of which Trump knows nothing about. Doubt among these tech giants is related to Trump’s failure to offer definitive proposals. He offers unknown dangers which could greatly damage American industry.
Weeks ago experts on fiscal policy analyzed Trump’s suggestion for ‘tax reform.’ Their opinion was that it would greatly favor the wealthiest Americans, offer no relief for middle and lower income Americans, and increase the deficit by trillions.
Trump’s supporters often praise his “business success.” The truth is that many of his efforts have either failed or become the object of controversy. He frequently fails to pay his debts. Now that Trump University has been exposed as a fraud, lawsuits are being filed by former “students” to retake their tuition. His “university” was no more than a series of lectures, the content of which was of no use in the realty industry.
The fact is that the media has not exposed Trump; instead, they support him and encourage his success.
Trump is the most unqualified candidate to ever run for our nation’s highest office. (This “honor” would have gone to Sarah Palin, but she was John McCain’s vice-presidential nominee). He has no experience in any form of government, and when he attempts to claim knowledge he is frequently incoherent, and always mistaken.
I predict two things if the American people become ignorant enough to elect Trump. The stock market will crash, and many of our tech companies will move away from American cities.
Both business, and the American people will have no faith in Trump’s economic policies. From my investigation, Trump is a failed Businessman, who would fail the United States of America. It’s important to throw out emotional baggage and save our nation and its people from certain disaster.
Intelligence forbids allowing Trump to further destroy our nation. Bernie Sanders’ supporters must swallow their pride and do the right thing. Bernie and Hillary share similar views on all the issues most important to America, and she will serve the American people, not rule over them.
