I still wonder if any large tech companies (Google, Apple, etc) will endorse against Trump before November. They did on Prop 8, and Trump will similarly have an immediate negative impact on many of their employees.
- kmiroslav 10y agoApple has already abandoned the RNC [1]. I'm disappointed that no other large companies have so far. [1] http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/jun/18/trump-remarks-prompt-apple-abandon-rnc-report/ http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/jun/18/trump-remark...
- Analemma_ 10y agoSeveral large companies have sharply withdrawn support from the RNC without abandoning it completely. Microsoft used to make monetary donations to them every election cycle, this year they are donating technical support to the convention but no money. YMMV on whether that's good/bad/enough.

From their perspective, Trump is against illegal immigration while protect legal immigration visa holders. But from the company perspective, it's another story.
- diyorgasms 10y agoI have to wonder if these are Chinese immigrants who are loyal to the government in China and as such find Trump's strong authoritarian streak reminiscent of home.
