Marc Andreessen says he's spent 'half' his time at Mar-a-Lago since the election, weighing in on tech and economic policy

• On a podcast, Marc Andreessen said he has spent half his time at Mar-a-Lago since Election Day.
• He said he regularly discusses tech and economic policy with President-elect Donald Trump.
• Andreessen donated millions to the pro-Trump super PAC "Right for America" and other GOP candidates.

Marc Andreessen said in a recent podcast appearance that since Election Day, he has spent roughly "half" his time at Mar-a-Lago discussing policy issues with President-elect Donald Trump.

Speaking with Bari Weiss for an episode of her "Honesty" podcast, the venture capitalist and vocal Trump supporter said he's "not claiming to be in the middle of all the decision-making" but is trying to help shape policy in a second Trump administration.

"I've been trying to help in as many ways as I can," Andreessen said. "Trump brings out a lot of feelings in a lot of people. People have very strong views. And then there are many political topics that, you know, we're very deliberately not weighing it on."

He added that he's "Not Mr. Foreign policy, or Mr. Abortion policy, or guns" because he's "not an expert on those things," but has instead focused his input on issues he does have experience in, like technology and economics.

"When I talk about these things, it's around tech policy, business, economics, and then, you know, the health of the country, the success of the country," Andreessen said.

Representatives for Andreessen and Trump did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Business Insider.

Andreessen was a vocal supporter of Trump's reelection bid. Business Insider previously reported he donated millions of dollars to a pro-Trump super PAC called "Right for America," and available data from OpenSecrets shows numerous donations to other Republican candidates and causes, such as the Republican Party of Michigan, Massachusetts, and Wisconsin, in the most recent election cycle.

Last month, Andreessen and Ben Horowitz, the founders of the pair's powerful venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, celebrated Trump's win during an episode of their podcast, "The Ben and Marc Show."

"It felt like a boot off the throat," Andreessen said of Trump's reelection. "Every morning I wake up happier than the day before."
