In a matter of weeks, LinkedIn cofounder and Democratic Party super-donor Reid Hoffman has gone from pouring at least $10 million into Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign to contemplating a U.S. exodus.
Hoffman told close friends and associates he is considering a move overseas, three anonymous sources told the New York Times last week. The 57-year-old tech mogul, who helped finance E. Jean Carroll’s private sexual assault lawsuits against Donald Trump, reportedly said he fears retribution from the president-elect. Trump has been explicit in his intention to seek vengeance on his political enemies, saying, “Sometimes revenge can be justified.” The remarks came after he was convicted of 34 felony charges related to hush money payments made to adult film star Stormy Daniels.
