CEO Mathew Blanchfield tells pro-Trump, Republican clients to take a hike

The CEO of an Albuquerque-based internet marketing firm has issued a letter telling clients who support President-elect Donald Trump to take their business elsewhere.

Mathew Blanchfield, who runs 1st in SEO, posted the letter describing Mr. Trump as “a racist, sexist, fascist” earlier this month on his company’s website.

He said that while he remains committed to his liberal clients, he “will no longer do business with any person that is a registered Republican or supports Donald Trump.”

“If you are a Republican, voted for Donald Trump or support Donald Trump, in any manner, you are not welcome at 1st In SEO and we ask you to leave our firm,” Mr. Blanchfield wrote in the letter, which he shared Wednesday with his 35,000 Twitter followers.

“We ask you, our current clients, to please respond to this letter and confirm where you stand politically. If you are a Republican or support Trump, we will no longer serve you,” he wrote.

Hope this joker is out of business next year. What a bone headed thing to do.

Privately held company...I'm sure there are others who would take the business but it will be interesting to see if this type of discrimination is allowed to stand.

Well look at this. A true progressive, liberal, endorsing discrimination. Well isn't that progress. Waiting on the same outrage that the Bakery that refused to make a wedding cake because it violated their beliefs. Waiting. So, what time does Hell freeze over.

Substitute the words Trump voter" or "republican" with the name of a race, sex, or nationality, then what do you have?

No dogs or Irish need apply.

He's slicing his own wrists, and can't even see the future results of his actions.

Can anyone say, "Typical Democrat"?

This is so Classic, and hilarious!

Is he pitching for Hillary's server business? Otherwise he just removed any remaining doubt that he's operating with a double digit IQ.
