As I walked home from work yesterday I was listening to a podcast about economics which mentioned that the Trump brand has been permanently devalued by his campaign -- people no longer want to stay in a Trump hotel, for example. And people have been leading efforts to drive potential students away from his "Trump University", and potential customers away from his other businesses.
It's possible you haven't seen such efforts, but that is not identical with "no efforts are occurring".
- morgante 10y agoI've definitely heard about direct economic effects for Trump (though I think he'll end up gaining a lot more economically from the massive diehard fanbase he has now built) but why hasn't there been more backlash against Thiel? In my book his cause is a whole lot worse than Eich's. Would you feel comfortable working at Peter Thiel's company?
- ubernostrum 10y agoI would not work for Thiel. Also there are people pressuring, for example, pg to dump his association with Thiel.
