The Spin

Pro-Trump narrative

It's impossible for tech entrepreneurs and executives to support Biden, and others should consider the ramifications if Trump doesn't defeat the incumbent president. Biden's administration wants to overtax those who've achieved the most in the US, and his agencies want to impose oppressive regulations on industry. There's no one else worth backing but Trump.

Anti-Trump narrative

It's no surprise that today's tech moguls — most of whom are white, male, and rich — would get behind the candidate who not only looks and thinks most like them, but will do what he can to fight against the diversity efforts they oppose and Democrats embrace. What's good for Silicon Valley, however, isn't always good for the US as a whole.
