T-Mobile on Trump: 'Were not talking about this'

T-Mobile US and its normally outspoken CEO remain silent as other Puget Sound-area technology companies speak out against President Donald Trump’s restrictive immigration order.

Microsoft, Amazon, Expedia, Starbucks and the leaders of other Seattle-area business have condemned Trump’s action, which blocks refugees and includes a 90-day ban on admissions and re-entry into the U.S. for non-citizens from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Sudan and Yemen.

“We’re not talking about this issue right now,” a spokeswoman emailed Monday in response to an inquiry from the Puget Sound Business Journal about the travel ban.

Bellevue-based T-Mobile (Nasdaq: TMUS) could benefit greatly under the Trump administration, which will likely be more open to consolidation than the Obama administration that blocked T-Mobile merger attempts.

Not all corporations are alike . Some are more ethical than others, some value freedom more than others, and some are just more honest than other; more transparent, less calculated.

Corporations are very special people in our economy and to whom much is given, much should be expected.

There were corporation which worked enthusiastically with Hitler, some who worked reluctantly with Hitler, and probably some that did not work to advance him at all.

This is 2017, not 1932 or 1934, what should we expect of our corporations, especially since we know how things played out some eighty yeas ago?
