Google is donating $1 million to President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration, continuing a trend among tech giants aligning with the new administration despite past legal tensions over antitrust issues.
Karan Bhatia, Google's global head of government affairs, stated, 'We are pleased to support Trump's inauguration,' highlighting the company's diplomatic approach towards the incoming administration, despite historical litigation.
Trump has recently shown skepticism about breaking up Google, fearing it might strengthen competing tech giants in China, thus signaling a potential shift in regulatory attitudes under his new term.
Tech companies like Amazon and Meta have also contributed $1 million each to Trump's inaugural fund, showing an industry-wide strategy to establish goodwill with an administration that directly impacts their operations.
