look like Tim Cook of Apple is sitting justly next to Facebook board member and ardent Trump jock Peter Thiel , who is seat right next to Trump . Sheryl Sandberg , the COO of Facebook is next to Vice President - elect Pence and Alphabet ( formerly named Google ) CEO Larry Page . Next to them is Amazon CEO and Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos .
And here ’s Trump saying that Thiel , to his left , was the one who decided who should and should n’t be invite to the meeting .

Does this mean it was really Thiel who apparently snubbed Twitter CEO jack Dorsey ? You ’d reckon Dorsey might get an invitation , considering Trump ’s love - affair with his platform .
And here ’s Trump say Thiel is a “ special guy , ” follow by a , uh , some kind of handshake , eminent five thingy .
And here is an awkward handclasp between Trump and Thiel.pic.twitter.com/QmvlSREnZc
