Meta donates $1 million to Donald Trump’s inaugural fund
Meta said on Wednesday that it had donated $1 million to President-elect Donald Trump’s inaugural fund, in the latest move by Mark Zuckerberg, the company’s CEO, to foster a positive rapport with Trump.
The Silicon Valley company did not provide details of why it made the donation, but the move came just weeks after Zuckerberg met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago. During that meeting last month, the two men exchanged pleasantries and Zuckerberg congratulated Trump on winning the presidency. Zuckerberg also had a meal with Sen. Marco Rubio, Trump’s pick for secretary of state, according to a person who saw the meeting happen.
