Silicon Valley 'cheers JD Vance VP pick' as more tech billionaires back Trump...
NY Post ^ | 7/16/2024 | Thomas Barrabi and Lydia Moynihan

Donald Trump’s selection of Sen. JD Vance as his 2024 running mate is seen as a potential windfall for Silicon Valley — and major tech VCs are going public with their support.

Vance’s stance aligns with that of Trump, whose FTC and Justice Department launched antitrust probes into Google, Meta, Amazon and Apple during his first term in office.

“President Trump and Vice President Vance will be the first crypto administration and will assemble the brightest minds in tech, AI, quantum computing, crypto, defense, transportation and biotech to create a renaissance in American dynamism and innovation,” Shervin Pishevar, a tech investor and managing director of EdisonAlpha Fund, told The Post.

One notable supporter is Elon Musk, who lauded Vance as a “great choice” and said the ticket “resounds with victory.”

Musk formally endorsed Trump after the Republican nominee narrowly escaped an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania over the weekend.

Vance makes me uneasy. He’s bright, well spoken, and has some solid values... but, his involvement in the WEF is troubling.

Trump and his family need to see this video rendering. It is unbelievable that he escaped. Not sure how the renderer knew the trajectory of the three bullets but it is close enough to reality

And you, Joe and Jill, you get to keep the nomination after all, because no one else wants it. Your public loss of your marbles as one of the worst shellackings in electoral history will be the “legacy” you have so avidly sought. Eat it, you wretched bastards

“I thought Burgum would take it..”

Maybe Trump thought people might have a problem voting for the guy who like like the town’s undertaker.

What involvement does Vance have with WEF?
His positions over the year are opposite to WEF

Talking specifically about the finance sector, J.D. Vance, Vice Presidential nominee for Donald Trump, talks about how financial profits and American assets are leaving the United States. Over the past few years, globalization and the international expansion have empowered other countries like China and India, while the United States has been on the decline. Ohio Senator J.D. Vance argues that the United States needs to invest more capital into the American economy and our own enterprises so that the next generation can have a better standard of living.

Excellent campaign ad. Soundbite of 5 seconds; can run lots of short clips with it, and at 1/6th the price of the 30 second spot. That makes the ads land before the skip button appears.

J.D. Vance @JDVance1

At this very moment there are companies (big and small) paying good wages to American workers, investing in their communities, and making it easier for American families. Cut their taxes. No more subsidies to the anti-American business class.

We can have an American Republic or a global oligarchy, and it’s time for choosing.

And has $100M. Like Oz IMO Bergum would not resonate well with the base.
