The Trump Administration And America's Tech Leaders

Description: Tesla's Elon Musk, Meta's Mark Zuckerberg, and Amazon's Jeff Bezos were all in attendance Monday as President Donald Trump was sworn into office. In fact, they had better seats than most.

Tech Industry Titans have spent months cozying up to the 47th president of the United States. Musk made campaign appearances with Trump. Zuckerberg has switched up his cultural rhetoric to fall in line with the new administration. And Bezos's companies are investing in the first family.

Then there's TikTok thanking then President-elect Trump for signaling he'd keep the app around for Americans following its recent blackout (despite the app's ban being initially pushed by Trump himself).

We discuss the significance of these men working so closely with the new administration.
