The silent majority in tech is silent no more
The shift toward Harris in silicon valley is very real. Seeing more momentum in this direction each day from founders, vcs, and more. Growing view that Trump was chaotic and unpredictable, and Harris can be a more stable, pro tech, pro business President.

The reference to "founders" in the speech was the first I can ever remember from a presidential candidate. It struck me as very powerful and very modern.
Great speech. She talked about being pro small business and founders. She talked about the need for innovation and leading in AI. She pushed for the middle class. She committed to Israel’s safety, while acknowledging the need to end the war and suffering. She’s a centrist.
