To build a great company, which is a CEO’s job, sometimes you have to stand up against conventional wisdom.
Donald Trump is a serial philanderer, by his own admission.
There’s a whole company called Palantir that does nothing but derive and create algorithms riches to search through big data. We’re not using their capabilities. For heaven’s sake, some of this is just ineptitude.
We need to unify our party, we need a real Conservative in the White House, and we need to beat Hillary Clinton to take our country back and keep our nation safe.
I am proudly pro-life and believe that science is proving those who believe in the sanctity of life right every day. A majority of Americans now agree that abortion after five months for any reason is wrong.
Hillary Clinton has gotten every foreign policy challenge wrong.
Religious liberty must be protected in this country. It’s a principle upon which we were founded.
All of our effort should be focused on protecting the religious liberties and freedom of conscience for those Americans that profoundly disagree with the decision.
When we miss with all the metadata collection we’ve had, the San Bernardino couple and the Tsarnaev brothers, what that suggests to me is that we are using the wrong algorithms to search through all this data.
Margaret Thatcher – a woman I greatly admire – once said that she was not content to manage the decline of a great nation. Neither am I. I am prepared to lead the resurgence of a great nation.
We have been through four and five generations of technology since the PATRIOT Act.
In fact, the private sector is improving their algorithmic ability to search through big data month after month after month. And, of course, a big government bureaucracy isn’t keeping up.
China is a rising adversary. So one of the things we have to do if we want China’s support is to push back on China.
I will not speak to Vladimir Putin personally until we’ve rebuilt the 6th Fleet a little bit right under his nose; rebuilt the missile defense program in Poland right under his nose; and conducted a few military exercises in the Baltic states.
The financial crisis was a classic case of the political class failing the American people. Twenty-five agencies were supposed to be minding the store during the financial crisis and every one of them was asleep at the switch.
We must move from revenue-neutral to revenue-reducing tax reform, because the federal government spends far too much money.
I do not support citizenship for those already here illegally. Those who cut the line and broke our laws as their first act entering this country have foregone that opportunity.
Alignment and collaboration need not be fuzzy, ill-defined concepts for “let’s just all get along.” Effective teamwork is more than good manners and good will, although both help an organization function more effectively. Alignment results from shared goals. Collaboration results from shared measures of success.
For me, business is a story about people – what they are capable of when supported and challenged; what they can envision and create – which is why I like the business world.
I need debate and dialogue with others to test my own thinking and to make a decision. I test others’ convictions or opinions by pushing on their arguments and seeing how strongly they will defend them. When challenged, do people shrink away from their own views, or do they stand behind them? When pressed, do people offer more data to support their position, or do they simply repeat the same things in a louder voice?
We are a nation founded on a visionary and, at the time, radical idea. That visionary idea is that every human life has potential, and everyone has the right to fulfill his or her potential. That is what the Founders meant when they wrote “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
