Zuckerberg's Meta Donates $1 Million to Trump's Inaugural Fund After Mar-a-Lago Meeting
Dec 12, 2024, 10:29 AM
Meta Platforms Inc., led by CEO Mark Zuckerberg, has donated $1 million to President-elect Donald Trump's inaugural fund, according to the Wall Street Journal. The donation marks an effort by Zuckerberg and Meta to improve relations with the incoming administration after a history of tense interactions. This move comes despite Trump previously calling for Zuckerberg to 'spend the rest of his life in prison' if it was shown that he interfered in the 2024 election. The donation follows a private meeting between Zuckerberg and Trump at Mar-a-Lago on November 27, during which Zuckerberg reportedly gifted Trump a pair of Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses.
