Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

Are we in good hands

Some one wanted to host an event to raise fund for Trump, changed mind and cancelled the event late, later explained to the world that he is not endorsing Trump.

What do you think about such a drama? I am just scratching my head. I don't feel good about this either as a share holder and employee.

In reference to news report: "Intel says CEO is not endorsing Trump after dinner falls through"

How does a leader in such an influential and visible position think a event hosted at his house won't be noticed by the world? Everyone is watching the three amigo's and he thinks nobody would notice.

Did this guy think thru anything? Clearly he didn't think this obvious issue thru

Did he think thru the implication off his IoT, 5G, memory thing

Did he think thru the implication of ACT

I see a theme here, LOL

Just sounds imprudent at best. We need a leader of good judgement and vision who can make right decisions.

It is just playing safe since both the candidates have equal chances. It is understandable.

Or, -eqo, in a particularly contentious election cycle, it's potentially consumer-alienating for the CEO to link their corporation to a polarizing brand. Though possibly he wanted to neutralize the publicity from Intel's $300 million diversity campaign.

Trump himself has explained his many donations to Democratic campaigns as an effort to work both sides of the aisle in order to reap the most political benefits for his business interests. And that's how Intel's official PAC works - though it, too, leans Republican (55% to 45%).

Completely lost faith and confidence in the current Intel leadership after this whole ACT chapter. The Trump episode was just the final drop in the bucket. I'm a goner through VSP.

Transparency at its best when circuit publishes big headlines about BK flying a drone like the guy at the mall but tiny blurb saying ignore the snafu you heard about in the news, everything is awesome.
