Elon Musk shelled out a hefty $277 million backing Trump but now faces a 'rocky road' and 'weird transition period' with Tesla's stock down over 28%. Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg called Trump a 'badass' but is busy fighting antitrust battles, while Alphabet’s Sundar Pichai refuses to tweak Google for Trump’s ego. At least now, CEOs have front-row seats to the wildest political rollercoaster ever!
