Old school capital in, new school social justice warriors out.

Business in, politicians out.

I would rather see the people who have been in the business of bribing politicians try to display how they could better operate on behalf of the American people, than the toilet scum politicians that have been bending over for those bribes all their lives.

Trump is bringing enormous talent to the table. If properly directed they will make a difference, then they'll go home and continue being rich.

Government is monumentally different from High Tech.

Although one might hope that modern, fast, efficient management styles from Google, Apple, Netflix and Amazon might possible transform the sclerotic halls of Washington, in fact it would be a hopeless deadend. No shared language. No common view of human nature. They couldn’t even begin to have a conservation.

Old school capital can help Washington get better. There is at least some mutual grounds for discussion between the parties.

The men and women coming in appear to be tough and well-experienced people. They also wear suits, unlike the fake jeans, Ts, and Nikes Zuckerberg phony ‘free enterprise’ Silicon Valley men and women-such people being complete fakes themselves, for they are by no means ‘nice’ or ‘egalitarian.’

Steel cf. silicon....

As someone who lived and worked very hard for 15 years in Silicon Valley, all the great minds are gone or retired.
The only ones left are only out for two things ...money and power.

Oops, one CEO still remains as truly innovative.
Pat Gelsinger over at VMware.
He was chief designer of the Intel 486 and got pushed out of Intel by Craig Barrett.

“Given his long experience as a New York real estate investor, Mr. Trump’s selections may not come as a surprise.”

“Donald comes from the financial services world. I think he tends to pick people who he’s comfortable with,”

I like that part and one thing came to my mind. I wonder what experience of any type that Barrack Obama had? Hehehehe

Makes sense. If I was elected president, my gunsmith would become head of the BATF, my favorite short order cook, head of Health and Human Services, etc.

Silicon Valley is in San Fran Nan’s back pocket. They know who butters their toast. So does Trump.

The rest of the advisory group appears to be a bipartisan mixture of business chiefs drawn from the worlds of finance, media and manufacturing.

Glad to see he'll have some people who actually make stuff. Hedge fund managers? F 'em.

Any reaction from Meg Whitman ? She was very busy fund raising for Hillary.

Silicon Valley = POOR COMMUNIST QUALITY JUNK!

Silicon Valley is ALL FOREIGNERS. 3 out of 4. Slave Labor.

Owned by import billionaire Chinese Communist Military Generals.

Slaves make junk. Chinese Generals are Losers.

They are just renting the land. It is the Rent Culture.
Sold by U.S. Congressmen.

Free Up the real creators! Invention has been halted since invention of the microwave.

Oh well. Lose your millions to Hillary and you still lost the election.

I have no sympathy for them.
