[CNN
...formerly the Cable News Network , now who know what it might stand for...
] Amazon is planning to donate $1 million to President-elect Donald Trump
...Oh, noze! Not him!...
’s inauguration, a person familiar with the matter told CNN. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is expected to visit with Trump in person in the coming days, as he and other tech founders seek closer relationships with the incoming president.
Amazon will donate $1 million in cash to the inauguration and it will make a $1 million in-kind donation by streaming the event on Amazon Video, the company confirmed to CNN Thursday evening.
Bezos and Trump spoke over the summer after the first liquidation attempt. Bezos publicly praised Trump at the time.
"Our former President showed tremendous grace and courage under literal fire tonight," Bezos wrote on X at the time.
Trump has been warming up to tech giants. He has flaunted his private conversations with them in interviews and appearances and now heaps praise on companies he once blamed in part for his 2020 electoral defeat.
The Wall Street Journal first reported the planned donation.
Bezos joins other tech leaders in looking to foster a closer relationship with the president-elect.
