Kevin O'Leary slams Hims & Hers CEO over his support of anti-Israel protests

"Shark Tank" co-host Kevin O'Leary unloaded on Hims & Hers CEO Andrew Dudum on Monday for his support of the anti-Israel protests — which he has walked back — and said he would have been fired if he was working for O'Leary.

O'Leary was asked Monday during an interview on FOX Business' "The Big Money Show" to weigh in on Dudum's initial response to the protests, which was supportive of the demonstrators protesting the Israel-Hamas war. "There are plenty of companies & CEOs eager to hire you, regardless of university discipline," Dudum had said.

O'Leary said he would have taken decisive action against Dudum.

"I would have fired this individual seconds after he made those remarks," he said. "Be gone. Because who are you serving by saying that? You know you're in a highly polarized situation. Fifty percent of your market does not agree with your view – we know that's the case. People are very polarized by this war, as they are in every war."

He said Dudum was only serving himself and had "no right" to push his values on everyone else.

"You can have an opinion, just like I can or everybody else can. But it is not your business to polarize everybody on your stack of shareholders and customers and employees," O'Leary said. 

"If you can't figure this out as a CEO, your board should fire you right now. And if you were working for me, you'd be whacked in seconds, seconds. You'd be history," he continued.
