Unlike some I'm not here to insult other people :)
Yeah you have a point there and I totally get how my comment was a bit shortsighted on that end, but I was just weirded out by the fact that a CEO's political position is supposed to be indicative of the future actions/positions of a company. Sure it's not entirely unlikely that it might affect the company in the future, but OPs post just felt a little like fearmongering to me.
Have you been following the news though? The 180 policy swings the moment it seemed good for business under a new administration in the divided states? Is it really so far-fetched to worry about a dipshit at the top of a company?
