Palantir CEO offers ‘radical’ view on national security: ‘Touch an American and we will inflict pain on you for generations’ – Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR)

If you want to kill your opponent on the battlefield, “you need a way to process the raw materials,” Karp said.

When it comes to government contracts, Karp did not seem to worry about whether the winner of the 2024 election will be either ex-president Donald Trump or Vice President Kamala Harris.

“We represent people who support both Trump and Harris,” he said, claiming to be a “dissatisfied radical Democrat.”

Karp also expressed his views on what U.S. policy should be regarding retaliation for attacks on American troops.

“If you touch an American, we will inflict pain on you for generations,” he said.

Palantir could be worth ten times more in the future than it is today, he added.
