Trump appointed a anti-big-tech guy and the CEO of Proton praised trump (paraphrasing here "earlier the dems were the party of the small man, now the republicans are"). This was not an endorsement of Trump and only applied in the narrow context of the anti-big-tech appointment. But a lot of people didn't understand that context or ripped it out of that context and made it look like proton as a whole supports Trump.

Trying to be fair, Donald Trump is so surrounded by sycophants who ritualistically praise his every move or fear excommunication, it is really hard to tell whether a tweet is that, or a legitimately reasoned opinion with some historical consistency which is not an endorsement
