Prominent business leaders praised Trump's victory, while some nonprofits called his win 'a disaster'.

Former President Donald Trump, now reelected to a second term, has vowed to enact business-friendly policies, including sharp corporate tax cuts, higher tariffs and swift deregulation.He says he'll cut the corporate tax rate by 6%, from its current 21%, to 15%, leading to greater profitability for companies.
