Summary
Tech leaders who once backed Trump are fed up as his second term descends into chaos.
Venture capitalists and startup founders complain about erratic policies and feel burned by crypto bro schemes like $Trump coin, which tanked after launch.
Appointing David Sacks as “crypto czar” only fueled suspicions of cronyism, while proposed defense budget cuts leave companies like Anduril and Palantir reeling.
Even billionaire allies like Jeff Bezos are souring as tariffs and economic uncertainty hit their bottom line. “Everyone is annoyed,” says one disillusioned founder.
Will they do something about it once their “tech” is wiped out? Their wealthy dissolved? Can they do anything about it once they’re wiped out? (or will they be like the rest of us - unable to overcome the sheer weight of counter-computation we fight against now?)
