DON’T YOU HATE IT WHEN THE LAW PROTECTS REPUBLICANS? GrubHub’s CEO may have opened the company up to massive liability by telling Trump supporters to quit, due to California law against “political discrimination.” If I were a hungry California lawyer, I’d set up a specialty in lawsuits against employers on behalf of conservative employees under this law. There’s money to be made. (And note similar laws elsewhere).

UPDATE: Oops, my mistake: Grubhub’s headquartered in Chicago. The law-practice point stands, though.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Still legally at risk, it seems, which is probably why they’ve backed down, though massive public anger is probably just as big a reason.
