    It was the dad. Ironically, my sister-in-law divorced him after he was the driver in a car involved in a televised police chase in Orange County, CA.

    Of course. He has overcome the loss of all of his retailers and his ventures into products that didn't work out well. His business acumen is fine. His problem is about politics. He is a political hack and can't understand that he needs to keep that to himself for the benefit of that company and its employees.

    CEO's can have any political ideology they choose and vote for whomever they choose but they can't drag their companies and employees into it. It is harmful to business. A good example from your side of the aisle is Dell Computer. It is a wildly successful company that decided they wouldn't sell computers to gun dealers. There was a temporary outrage from the right and it hurt sales for a period of time. There was no point in it and they backed away from that policy quickly. Businesses should value all customers. They are easier to lose than gain in the first place.

    100% agree, it's bad business to push political views

    Imagine if Raytheon adopted a policy against using their products in an improper method!

    He’s broke.

    He was suspended from Fox for several weeks becasue he didn’t pay his bills.

    Someone must have bailed him out, or bullied Murdoch into putting him back on.

    He is, after all, another piece of cofeve in the Trump clown show.
