Start Up CEO Resigns After Threatening to Kill Trump

I wrote about this earlier in the week. The CEO of Packetsled is now dutifully unemployed, after threatening to kill the President elect, Donald J. Trump. His VC overlord’s could permit him to fuck up the valuations for the next round of financing.

“We want to be very clear, PacketSled does not condone the comments made by Mr. Harrigan, which do not reflect the views or opinions of the company, its employees, investors or partners,” the statement read.

“PacketSled takes recent comments made by our CEO, seriously. Once we were made aware of these comments, we immediately reported this information to the secret service and will cooperate fully with any inquiries,” the first statement read.

This is the last tweet from Mr. Harrigan.

In hindsight, I bet Matt regrets being such a jackass. After all, he wasn’t really going to kill Trump. Any serious assassin worth his salt doesn’t declare so on social media. Moreover, he lost a sweet gig at a company he loved and for what?! You fucking idiot.

    I am over half way through the book Chaos Monkeys – a great read if you REALLY want to know how the psychology of Stockholm Syndrome valley – err Silicon valley – strokes the fur and egos of these dudes and dudettes.

    Wow, this dude’s career just went up in smoke. And for what? He’ll have to live with that stain on his record and nobody is ever going to give this guy money or hire him. He’s DONE.

    Liberalism is a disease. You wouldn’t see conservative CEOs posting crap like this if Clinton was elected. How stupid do you have to be? You’re the frickin ceo of a company and you think whatever you say or do publicly has no bearing on your company??
