EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of Pivot, featuring Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway, What Donald Trump's Victory Means for Elon Musk and Big Tech | Pivot explores Trump’s Win Reshapes Power for Musk, Thiel, Bezos, and Big Tech Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway dissect how Donald Trump’s victory is being received by major tech leaders and what it means for their power and profits. They contrast the cautious, formulaic congratulations from most CEOs with Jeff Bezos’s unusually effusive praise, raising conflicts with his ownership of The Washington Post. The conversation spotlights Peter Thiel as the quiet but pivotal power broker behind J.D. Vance and key political infrastructure, and details Elon Musk’s huge financial upside and expected policy gains from backing Trump. They also explore prediction markets, speculative trading around Trump Media, and why a future clash between Trump and Musk is likely.
