It’s beginning to look as if companies headed by leftists will never figure out that most people want a product, not a political viewpoint.
When it comes to employee expenses, businesses struggle with categorizing the receipts that flow in and dispensing reimbursements. Expensify is a popular software company that automates many of those tasks for its 10 million clients. Up until about five minutes ago, it was a profitable company that had attracted over $38 million in funding. However, David Barrett, the Founder, CEO, and Director couldn’t keep his Democrat political opinions to himself. As a result, the company instantly began to hemorrhage customers.
On Thursday, Barrett emailed a long letter to every single one of the company’s 10 million customers explaining why they should vote for Biden to save democracy:

These CEOs create a hostile work environment too.
We are NOT a ‘democracy’...if you don’t understand that simple concept; you shouldn’t have the right to vote.

Don’t you just Love a Corporate Suicide!!
From the main log in page of usaa:
“USAA making a 3 year, $50 million commitment to advance racial equality”
Hard to find any org or company now that hasn’t fallen for the lie. Not as if there haven’t been multi buhzillions spent since CRA1964 to achieve ‘equality’. Results——burnin’, lootin’, mayhem.
Joe Biden ... You don't even want to think about what Joe Biden would do to the recovering economy.
"Woke" CEOs are just phenomenally stupid.
It doesn’t say anything about him losing large numbers of customers. I doubt he will.
They don’t teach civics anymore.
You’re right. While founded with democratic principles in mind, the United States is a republic.
If this is a publicly traded company, the CEO probably won’t last long. Shareholders will not be pleased.
Or maybe I should call it. Understandify.

“” Woke” CEOs are just phenomenally stupid.”
The other possibility is that they’re paying protection money to the protection racket run by Blm/Antifa... Or both.
Bingo, this nation is supposed to be a “representative republic.”
As long as consumers continue to blow money in search of that fulfilling entertainment that doesn’t exist,...
We are a representative form of democracy according to the Merriam-Webster definition. We are not a "direct" or "liquid" democracy.
Merriam-Webster definition of democracy:
a: government by the people especially : rule of the majority
b: a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections
Next, he, in his closing, says; "PS: Agree or disagree? Reply to this email to share your thoughts with Concierge, or hit me up on Twitter @dbarrett to discuss!" and also earlier; "So one final plea. As a fellow citizen, I fully support and respect your Constitutional right to disagree — and as an avid supporter of democracy, I value that disagreement. Constructive, well-informed debate (hopefully using the most accurate, least biased news source available) is what makes this nation so exceptional." YET, when clients of Expensify respond with cancellations of their accounts, they get the following message; "To clarify, are you leaving because you dislike democracy and don’t want to defend it? Or is there something else?" Hypocrite Much?
I have dozens and dozens of pages of personally banned companies who publicize their wokeness.
Calling America a democracy is a reliable tell with leftists, progressives, D’rats and other unAmerican types.
They cannot stand saying “our republic” and “republican process” because it sounds like “Republican”. They do love to use what sounds like “Democrat”.
Patriot Americans call us a republic, with a republican process.
We used to recite our Pledge of Allegiance to the classroom U.S. flag every morning in grade school — “...and to the republic for which it stands...”.
Pubic school unionized progressive teachers did away with that practice decades ago. Purposely.
His company is based in San Francisco. There’s a picture of him the Wall St. Journal. I’m usually pretty good at this, judging by his picture i’d guess yeah......he’s a flamer. So no big surprise I guess:
