Tech billionaire, lifelong Dem Mark Pincus endorses Trump

"I am voting for Trump," Pincus wrote on X. "I have been a lifelong Dem, supporting the past 4 presidential campaigns at $1m each (including Biden/Harris)."

"This past year I have seen too much," Pincus added. He is worth an estimated $1.4 billion and is known for his founding of the video game company Zynga, which is most famous for creating Farmville, the Daily Mail reported.

"Israel is America’s most loyal ally and the only Democracy in the Middle East. It is fighting Iran on 7 fronts and yet it can no longer trust the US. Anti semitism in America is reaching levels not seen since pre WWII," he wrote.

"And there seems to be a war against freedom of speech. Happily MSM is no longer trusted but if our sources of free speech like X are censored we move a step closer to Russia and China where the state is the only voice allowed.

"I know America will continue to be great under the Dems or Trump. And yet, I think America and Israel will be stronger under Trump. My vote doesn't matter since I live in a one party state. But I feel it's important that I state my position anyway," Pincus, who lives in California, concluded.

Pincus is the latest Silicon Valley billionaire to throw his support behind Trump. Following the assassination attempt on Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, X owner Elon Musk endorsed Trump.

In August, the CEO and co-founder of Lightspark David Marcus announced that he was "crossing the Rubicon and backing the Republican Party and President Trump" after voting for Democrats for years.

In June, billionaires Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss announced that they had donated the equivalent of $2 million in Bitcoin to Trump’s campaign, citing the "war against crypto" carried out by Biden, who was still the Democratic presidential candidate at that point.
