GrubHub (NYSE:GRUB) is off 5.8% in a move attributed to sharp comments about the presidential election from CEO/founder Matt Maloney, where he asked people who voted for Donald Trump to resign.
This follows a series of Tweets where Maloney has openly attacked Trump and his supporters.
Shares are down 9.4% over the past two days. An e-mail sent by Maloney (and confirmed by the company) said that he "absolutely" rejected the "nationalist, anti-immigrant and hateful politics of Donald Trump."
Lawers have declined to comment but have said there are several independent lawsuits already in the works as threatening to fire employees due to their voting history is highly illegal in the state of California.
Several employees have already filed "hostile workplace" complaints as precursors to the lawsuits.

Simple minded moron.
He has completely fucked over all of his "hillary" voters working in the company as company value drops like a rock, loses customers, and faces crippling lawsuits.
Yeah.
I'm sure His hillary voter workers are happy as hell over his verbal diarrhea.

Would you think it possible that this level of incompetence would give rise to a shareholder in the company having a legitimate claim against him as an individual for malpractice?

They'd have to take it to the board of directors and have a vote of no confidence (if public).

I just placed an order using grubhub. If there is a better app out there, please share with the class.

It's California, one maybe Trump voter will win a nice settlement, and the company will be propped up by the popular vote tumblerinas. If that Trump voter was loyal, he would have written in Obama on his ballot.

youtube.com/watch?v=B4Uf9rsBbhc Sketch is really called 'Hamlet' but it's on youtube as 'what really happened to Abe Lincoln'
and the Civil War on Drugs is their movie they made, nearly every scene is good, but it looks like it's been taken off Youtube, so here's a different skit youtube.com/watch?v=lBarJFm51OE

Okay I understand they're pieces of shit for firing people based on their political views but why are you sharing them at work? If someone asks you who you're voting for, just refuse to answer. It's always a bad idea.

It's a an Uber style food delivery service. UberEats CEO must be laughing. Grubhub will be finished after this. Will lose significant market share and possibly be crippled by a few lawsuits/settlements.
Good riddance. Only the most stupid people bring politics into business.
