When President-elect Donald Trump won the 2024 general election in November, taking not only a huge number of Electoral College votes, but winning the popular vote too, resulting in a major red wave crashing down on the country, most of us probably weren’t prepared for the fact that our culture, including the arts, would start making a pretty significant shift back toward the right. It’s almost like people were already wanting to move that direction as it reflects their actual values, but were afraid to do so, believing our society was mostly composed of left-wingers.
But that’s not true. Not at all. Most folks are somewhere in the middle, reasonable people who are just trying to live their lives a day at a time.
Further showcasing that we could be on the cusp of this shift, Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos has booked a meeting for Tuesday with President-elect Donald Trump, to be held at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. Could we be seeing the original giant streamer potentially moving away from woke ideology and adopting more of the values Americans actually believe in?

Reuters notes Sarandos has traditionally backed Democratic Party candidates, making donations to support outgoing President Joe Biden, former President Barack Obama and Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, according to researcher OpenSecrets. Sarandos did not immediately respond to Reuters request for comment.The meeting was first reported earlier on Monday by CNN reporter Alayna Treene on X, formerly known as Twitter.
If the meeting goes ahead as planned it will just be the latest in a string of get togethers between Trump and business leader of all types eager to renew his acquaintance. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg for one recently visited Mar-a-Lago and has subsequently donated $1 million to Trump’s inaugural fund.
Guess who else is set to pay a visit to President-elect Trump? The founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, who spoke with the New York Times during the first part of December, stating that Trump “seems to have a lot of energy around reducing regulation, and my point of view, if I can help him do that, I’m going to help him.”
This is a guy who was, is, and probably will remain, a left-wing progressive, stating that he would join with the scourge of all Democrats in order to help toss out regulation for businesses that probably need it or else suffer major negative economic consequences.
We’re experiencing a conservative awakening in the United States, which is something we’ve all longed to see, but never believed was truly possible. Trump is working to truly Make America Great Again and I’m here for the ride.
