"We Should Not Have Done It": Thiel Breaks With Trump Over Iran War, Warns America May Not "Have The Hard Power"
One day after we reported that Donald Trump Jr. has privately broken with his father over the Iran war, Peter Thiel, the PayPal and Palantir (PLTR) co-founder who was the first big tech investor to back Trump in 2016 and the biggest funder of super PACs behind JD Vance's 2022 Senate run, has also drawn a line in the sand over Trump's defining foreign-policy gamble.
