Peter Thiel, billionaire entrepreneur, co-founder of PayPal, and a director of Facebook, expressed his strong support for Donald Trump from the podium of the Republican National Convention on the final night of the four-day event.
“I’m proud to be gay, I’m proud to be a Republican. Most of all, I’m proud to be an American.”
Total pandemonium in the arena, standing ovation, wild applause.
“Look. I don’t pretend to agree with every plank in the platform. But I don’t have to. I urge all of you to stand up and vote … for Donald Trump,” Thiel smiled.
