Donald Trump is taking aim at business leaders, -- saying they should be
fired if they don’t support him.
In two long Truth Social posts on Tuesday quoting a Wall Street Journal article, Trump said
“Business Executives and Shareholder Representatives should be 100% behind Donald Trump!
💥Anybody that’s not should be FIRED for incompetence!”💥
Lately, Trump has attempted to line up the CEO and executive crowd behind him,
but this is the first time he seems to have openly #threatened them.
Last week, he met with at least 80 CEOs, promising tax cuts and scaled-back business regulations if he’s elected president.
Accounts of that meeting did not have the convicted felon and former president coming off well, with Trump reportedly rambling all over the place on different topics.
“These were people who, I think, might have been actually predisposed to him,” said CNBC’s Ross Sorkin.
“And [they] actually walked out of the room less predisposed to him, actually predisposed to thinking ‘This is not necessarily—’ as one person said,
‘this may not be any different or better than a Biden thought, if you’re thinking that way.’”
