Feuding Companies Now Shower Trump with Inauguration Donations

Companies that previously feuded with President-elect Trump are now making seven-figure donations to his 2025 inauguration. Trump has butted heads with several Fortune 500 company executives over the years, but following his presidential election victory in November, some of those same big-business leaders are dropping major cash on the incoming president's exclusive inaugural festivities. 'In the first term, everyone was fighting me.

This time, everyone wants to be my friend,' Trump recently said at Mar-a-Lago, according to The Washington Post. Meta, the world's largest social media network headed by Mark Zuckerberg, suspended Trump's Facebook and Instagram accounts in 2021 after the events of Jan. 6 — which Trump called an 'insult' to his voters. In his new book, titled 'Save America,' Trump accused Zuckerberg of 'plotting' against him in 2020. 'He told me there was nobody like Trump on Facebook. But at the same time, and for whatever reason, steered it against me,' Trump wrote. 'We are watching him closely, and if he does anything illegal this time he will spend the rest of his life in prison — as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election.' Trump, in his book, also accused Zuckerberg of 'always plotting to install shameful Lock Boxes in a true PLOT AGAINST THE PRESIDENT.' However, the relationship appeared to change course as the election drew nearer. After Trump's Butler, Pennsylvania, assassination attempt in July, Zuckerberg said Trump's fist pump in the air after suffering a bullet wound to the ear was 'one of the most bada-- things I've ever seen in my life.' Shortly after Trump won the election in November, Zuckerberg met with the incoming president at Mar-a-Lago. Just weeks later, Meta donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration fun
