Tech C.E.O.s Spent Millions Courting Trump. It Has yet to Pay Off
nytimes.comIt's less than 100 days in, and courting Musk turned out to be at least as important. Give it a bit of time. Maybe DOGE-stylists will give API access to Meta and Oracle for whatever excuse they can come up with.
What a weird headline. Good? Corruption is bad? Donations to political candidates should not "pay off"
Headlines, like most journalism, ought to be neutral. Your reaction is valid; another reaction might be anger, that these CEOs are firing workers in service of funding corrupt (and now, fruitless) ambitions.
Spent = bribed
Might there be a Control Group - of top-tier Tech CEO's who did not bother $pending big to court Trump - which we could compare to?
It has paid off. The market is tanking. /s
Do we really want CEOs corrupting our government like the last administration? This sounds like a good thing to me.
