About time!
Mar-a-Lago, FL — President Donald J. Trump delivered a powerful message Thursday during a commencement speech at the University of Alabama: the same tech giants who opposed him during his first term are now eagerly supporting his leadership.
“They hated me before,” Trump said with a grin. “Now, they’re lining up to work with me. Elon is terrific. They’re all coming around.”
Trump’s Leadership Converts Former Critics in Silicon Valley
President Trump, known for his unapologetic America First agenda and business-first leadership, noted that key technology figures — including Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos — are now looking to build bridges after years of resistance.
Tech titans who once fueled anti-Trump sentiment are now making quiet visits to Mar-a-Lago and donating to his inauguration efforts. These include:
- Elon Musk – Now one of Trump’s closest allies and head of the Department of Government Efficiency
- Mark Zuckerberg – Meta CEO reportedly visited Trump to discuss “policy alignment”
- Jeff Bezos – Amazon founder, now looking to ease past tensions
- Apple CEO Tim Cook and Microsoft’s Satya Nadella and Brad Smith also made private visits
- Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI and longtime Democrat donor, gave to Trump’s inaugural committee
Elon Musk Joins Trump in Cutting Waste and Driving Efficiency
Musk, who raised over $250 million for Trump’s re-election campaign, is now leading an initiative to streamline bloated federal departments and eliminate government waste — a core promise of Trump’s second-term platform.
“There’s never been a businessman like me who became President,” Trump said. “They said it couldn’t be done. But I proved them wrong — twice.”
Trump’s Bold Moves: Tariffs, Tech Reform, and Free Speech
While Big Tech is now reaching out, President Trump hasn’t pulled any punches:
- Tariff Strategy: Trump continues to push for fair trade and American manufacturing, sending a strong message to global markets.
- Censorship Crackdown: His administration is investigating online censorship, demanding transparency from social media platforms.
- Antitrust Enforcement: The White House has doubled down on enforcement to hold Big Tech accountable.
These moves have stunned Silicon Valley insiders who once expected Trump to ease off in his second term. Instead, he’s delivering results—and demanding respect.
A President with Business Instinct, Not Political Spin
Trump emphasized that he doesn’t think of himself as a politician. “I use business instinct. It’s what Washington has lacked for decades,” he said.
In a country fatigued by empty promises and political games, President Trump’s track record speaks for itself: results, accountability, and American prosperity.
