Trump inauguration: What to know about Trump's changing relationships with Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and the other tech execs who were front and center

Several major tech moguls were given priority seats at President Trump's second inauguration on Monday, including X CEO Elon Musk, Meta's Mark Zuckerberg, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew.

The article discusses the evolving relationships between former President Donald Trump and several prominent tech executives, focusing on the dynamics before, during, and after his presidency. Initially, Trump had a cordial relationship with tech leaders like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, with Musk even serving on presidential advisory councils. However, tensions arose over policy disagreements, particularly around immigration and climate change, leading to Musk's resignation from these councils. Trump's relationship with Bezos soured due to Trump's frequent criticisms of Amazon and its tax practices, as well as his attacks on The Washington Post, which Bezos owns. Other tech figures like Apple's Tim Cook managed to maintain a more neutral stance, engaging with Trump on issues like trade and manufacturing. The article highlights how these relationships have shifted, with some tech leaders distancing themselves from Trump, while others have navigated the political landscape to maintain or even improve their business interests.
