  • Donald Trump's second inauguration offers wealthy donors and big companies one final chance to make nice before Trump returns to power.

The article from MSN discusses how tech moguls are considering donations to Donald Trump's inauguration as a strategic move to mend or establish relationships with the incoming administration. Despite Trump's often critical stance towards Silicon Valley, tech leaders see this as a last-minute opportunity to gain favor or at least mitigate potential conflicts. The piece highlights the political maneuvering in tech circles, where companies like Apple, Google, and others have historically supported both Democrats and Republicans to hedge their bets. However, with Trump's unpredictable policies and his administration's potential regulatory actions against tech giants, these donations are seen as a form of insurance or goodwill gesture. The article also notes the broader context of Trump's fundraising efforts, which have been less successful compared to previous inaugurations, possibly due to his controversial campaign and policies.
