Palantir CEO Alex Karp switched sides to the Democrats after their victories in the midterm elections. Politico.
He criticized Trump's immigration pushback and the Republican approach to economic justice.
Despite receiving billions in federal contracts under Trump, Karp said Democrats have corrected course enough to win his support in 2028.
"I have been a Democrat all my life. I grew up on the extreme left. I know more about what it means to be progressive than almost anyone on the planet."
On the immigration issue, Karp welcomed Trump's admission that enforcement had gone too far, saying:
"I am happy that he is now saying in public what I said in private."
