Tech's Rightward Drift: Researcher Becca Lewis on How Trump Captured Silicon Valley

Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-desc-yt Many Silicon Valley companies and their billionaire owners have formed "a symbiotic relationship" with Donald Trump, showering the president and his administration with money and adulation in exchange for friendly policies, according to researcher Becca Lewis. She says that while Silicon Valley has always had reactionary currents, the Biden administration's stricter regulation of the industry led to a decisive break with Democrats, who had previously benefited from Big Tech's cash and influence. "Now you see a wholehearted embrace of Trump with the hopes of deregulation," says Lewis.
