LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman is not shy when expressing his opinions of President Trump.
The entrepreneur, who now sits on Microsoft's board of directors and is a partner at venture capital firm Greylock, campaigned publicly for Hillary Clinton and in March said that Trump was even worse than he feared.
In an interview with CNBC's Julia Boorstin at the Disruptor 50 event in San Francisco on Wednesday night, Hoffman had perhaps his harshest words yet about the president, calling him "worse than useless" and saying that he'd "take someone randomly picked from a phone book" over him as president.
He singled out Trump's criticism of legitimate news sources like CNN as "basically criminal negligence" because we need to have "robust media functions" to check abuses by government.
Hoffman also discussed entrepreneurialism and the challenges of turning a start-up into a successful high-scale business.
One challenge, he said, is maintaining a consistent culture as a company goes through different stages -- the CEOs of a 50-person company might be able to interview every new employee for cultural fit, for example, while a 10,000-person company needs systems in place to communicate the company's cultural mandates to new hires.
He also suggested that Uber, while it did many things right, missed the transition from being "pirates" to "navy" -- that is, from scrappy start-up to powerful established company -- and that some of its cultural problems may have arisen because of that.....

“A slovenly, disheveled, 375lb autistic neck beard. Why can’t our side get some of those?”
Because the US has a finite supply of lesbians?
I wonder if he’d like to see a “Day of Cancelling my LinkedIn Membership”?
Because they did such a swell job during the 8 dark years of Obama.
He’s worse than useless as a Progressive—which are feminine men who are little more than children.
As an American President, he exceeds expectations.
Aww. Poor Reid is just butt hurt that Trump - like all other Americans IGNORED Linked In requests
Probably his “butt hurt” comes from his partner(s).
Why does he shake like that? Does Hoffman have Parkinsons? Or is it just his fat jiggling?
The progressives/liberals agenda is a boil on the butt of the USA and Trump lanced the s##t out of it....Not even a year and look at all that’s happened....
Is LinkedIn useful?
How do I unsubscribe?
I’ve never found it to be. YMMV.
Unlike obama, he hasn’t freed any terrorists, he hasn’t dissed America while overseas, he hasn’t given billions to a terrorist state, he hadn’t coddled communists, he loves our military and most of all, he loves aamerica.
I lived in Asia for two years. If I were a multimillionaire (and I’m fat too) I could do A LOT better than that, although I’m sure she’s a nice lady.
