Clearly, Buffett doesn't want to throw his hat in the election ring. But why not?
Given the high stakes in this presidential election and his history of past endorsements this is a bit of a head scratcher.
I think it’s pretty clear - for this longstanding Democrat, who has almost always publicly supported the Democrat running for president, the current candidate is just not worthy of his support. I don’t think Buffett has changed his affiliation, or his disapproval of the Republican candidate, nor do I think he has suddenly become too shy to state a preference.
