      Hey @paulg, has Thiel now invested more in a Trump presidency than YC companies?http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/16/technology/peter-thiel-donald-j-trump.html?_r=0 …

      If 37signals had employees who were avid Trump supporters, would you fire them?

      No. Being a "supporter" is entirely different from being a surrogate, keynote speaker, huge money donor. Also: Not an employee.

      Would you fire an employee who donated a lot of money to Trump and spoke at the convention?

          Thiel is not your employee. He's your billionaire business partner.

          An employee is the closest thing to what a part-time partner is. So stop splitting hairs to evade the question. Would you?

          Although Thiel would already have been on a Performance Improvement Plan for his legal wars against the press. So easy move 😂

          Also good to know that if you fund someone who is openly racist, sexist and incites violence @paulg is okay with that. @dhh

          I find it pretty disingenuous that @paulg pretends he can’t tell the difference between an employee and business partner @dhh

          wrong question. Every time I use PayPal I am helping to create the $$ used here to support trump. Can't do it. Bye bye PayPal.

          people get fired over social posts and media interviews all the time. Donating is one thing.. expressing conflicting views is another

          If that employee is vocal against your values as a company, then absolutely. Support for Trump is beyond political at this point

          unlimited donations are fine... Just don't hide it. Currently they get to hide it and that's BS
