Top CEOs value stable democracy but risk backlash for advocacy amid Trump presidential bid, analysts say.

Business leaders remain torn over whether to publicly address threats facing U.S. democracy, including Trump, former executives and advocacy group leaders told ABC News, citing conversations with CEOs.

Elizabeth Doty, the Director of the Erb Institute's Corporate Political Responsibility Taskforce at the University of Michigan, said Trump looms over conversations with C-suite officials about the 2024 election, even if his name isn't mentioned. CEOs would speak out again if the 2024 presidential election brings a crisis akin to the previous contest, Sonnenfeld said. "I'm 100% certain," he added. "They're not looking for a fight but they will meet the moment."
