Facebook, Tesla CEOs skip meet with US President Donald Trump

No one turned up their nose and everyone was all ears. US President Donald Trump and top tech titans from Silicon Valley engaged in a spirit of constructive cooperation on Monday despite deep misgivings, a meeting that appeared to result, among other things, in a softening of the Trump administration’s hardline stance on work visas.

Calling them “special people” who are at the “absolute cutting edge of innovation,” Trump pledged to work “very diligently with everybody , including Congress, on immigration so that you can get the people you want in your companies”.
