I've talked to some people who I think are smart, in tech and finance, about why they like Trump (two of which also love Thiel, and I myself think Peter Thiel is underrated). If you sincerely want to understand where they are coming from, I have some reading for you. One of them gave me this article: https://www.claremont.org/crb/basicpage/the-flight-93-election/ https://www.claremont.org/crb/basicpage/the-flight-93-electi... Another penned this one recently: https://sovereignexceptions.wordpress.com/2018/10/22/team-trump-trumpism-and-trump/ https://sovereignexceptions.wordpress.com/2018/10/22/team-tr... None of my acquaintances in tech are public about supporting Trump. Finance is a bit different. And this is not at all true of my blue-collar friends (also note I live in New Hampshire, not SV). Unfortunately I find it is getting harder to talk politics, at all, with my very liberal friends. And it is very easy to discuss (and even disagree) with my conservative friends.
