BREAKING: Silicon Valley venture capitalist Ben Horowitz, who previously endorsed Trump in July, has DUMPED Trump!

He now plans to make a "significant" donation to Kamala Harris' presidential campaign says he's encouraged by Harris' stance on tech.

via Axios:

1. Jess christ. So one person who can be persuaded between two horribly opposite candidates and visions on a whim

…can wield a decisive amount of resources in an election?

[mahina]

2. Better than not but

dang, what kept him?

[Cha]

7. And, what was the Straw with TSF?

3. Just wants to make certain whoever is elected owes him something

This is a sign that TFG will lose.

Old pattern with the mega wealthy, donate to both sides so that no matter who wins, they will owe him.

You only give to one side when you are certain that person will win or you are a true believer fanatic like Leonard Leo, Peter Thiel, and the Kochs

4. Because Harris's views on keeping America a democracy with reproductive rights and civil rights and a right to vote...

...where we don't demonize immigrants and minorities wasn't quite enough to earn this bro's support until Harris got her "stance on tech" right by his of thinking.

Hey, good to have his money on our side, but he's just reading the tea leaves and hopes to buy influence with the likely winner.

5. Another 'bigger than life' billionaire parasite? Sorry, but I'm glad he is doing it, but can we say

Confiscatory wealth tax?

6. On the behalf of the Harris/Walz campaign

We accept!!!

8. I am sure he doesn't want anything in return
