    Positive Insights

    Trump's smarter than critics think 
    John Sculley Former Apple CEO

    "What Donald does is he understands, just like Steve Jobs did, the master of perception. He can create something where people don't care about the facts; what they care about is that he's appealing to the disappearing middle class. He will change the perception for himself to be much more presidential; he still won't worry about the facts. But he will come across much more as a leader and presidential than he's tried to."

    Leadership and strength are desperately needed
    Brian France - Nascar CEO

    "He wins with his family. Any of his children, you’d be proud of have them as part of your family. That’s how I judge a winner, how somebody manages their family and raises their family. Donald Trump’s leadership and strength are desperately needed.”

    Trump is good for the economy 
    Les MoonvesCBS CEO

    "So what can I say? The money’s rolling in, this is fun. I’ve never seen anything like this and this is going to be a very good year for us. … It’s a terrible thing to say, but bring it on, Donald, go ahead, keep going.”

    Trump says kind things about Planned Parenthood 
    Cecile Richards - Planned Parenthood CEO

    “Well, this is one thing I agree with Donald Trump on, is that Planned Parenthood does amazing work for 2 1/2 million patients every single year. I think the disturbing thing is that Donald Trump as well as Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio have said if they were president, they would end women’s access to family planning, to cancer screening, to basic affordable health care as well as overturning the Affordable Care Act which is now covering family planning and other preventive care for for 55 million women. That’s what’s really at stake here. And so, I appreciate his kind words. We’re very proud of our work, but I think women in this country and families and men are going to be very concerned about a president who wants to roll back access to affordable health care in America.”

    We must stop Donald Trump
    Meg Whitman - CEO of HP Enterprises (HPE, Tech30) 

    "I won't be voting for Donald Trump. Look at the comments he's made about women, about Muslims, about reporters, it's just repugnant. Trump is a "dishonest demagogue" who would "sink this country into a recession.""

    Trumps stance on immigration is "disheartening"
    Sundar Pichai - Google CEO 

     "..."Let’s not let fear defeat our values,” inferring that the anti-Muslim rhetoric so closely associated with Trump’s presidential campaign is disheartening. America, after all, was and is a country of immigrants.

    Ended all business dealings with Trump
    Randy Falco - Univision Communications CEO 

    "There has been a lot of press recently around the decision related to Donald Trump and I want to address it with you so you understand the position taken. I made the decision to end business relationships with the Trump Organization simply because it was the right thing to do. No one approached me, asked me or pressured me to take this action. There have been a number of ridiculous assertions bordering on the bizarre, made from different people, that the Mexican government put pressure on us, that we were under political pressure to hurt a Republican candidate’s chances to the nomination, or that we were trying to assist other political candidates.remotely true. I can also assure you that we never apologized because we have nothing to apologize for."

    Trump has no humility and 'Scares Me to Death'
    David Green - Hobby Lobby CEO

    "I don't see humility in Mr. Trump, and that scares me to death. I want a president that my kids, my grandkids and my great-grandkids can emulate."

    Trump unacceptable and disturbing.
    Roger Ailes - Fox News Chairman and CEO

     "Donald Trump's surprise and unprovoked attack on Megyn Kelly during her show last night is as unacceptable as it is disturbing. Megyn Kelly represents the very best of American journalism and all of us at FOX News Channel reject the crude and irresponsible attempts to suggest otherwise. I could not be more proud of Megyn for her professionalism and class in the face of all of Mr. Trump’s verbal assaults. Her questioning of Mr. Trump at the debate was tough but fair, and I fully support her as she continues to ask the probing and challenging questions that all presidential candidates may find difficult to answer. Donald Trump rarely apologizes, although in this case, he should. We have never been deterred by politicians or anyone else attacking us for doing our job, much less allowed ourselves to be bullied by anyone and we’re certainly not going to start now. All of our journalists will continue to report in the fair and balanced way that has made FOX News Channel the number one news network in the industry."
