Here's what top business leaders had to say about Trump's win.

Donald Trump managed to pull off a major political upset Tuesday night, securing 270 electoral votes and winning the presidency.

As the results rolled in, many took to social media to weigh in on the Republican businessman's victory. Trump himself took back control of his preferred social media platform to announce the win and change his Twitter bio to read "president-elect of the United States."

Among the Twitter commenters were some of the biggest names in business today.

Here's what top business leaders tweeted about Trump's win:
