Former President and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump threatens to imprison billionaire entrepreneur and founder of Facebook Mark Zuckerberg in his new book, Save America.
Underneath a picture of Zuckerberg meeting with Trump at the White House during the latter’s presidency, Trump writes that Zuckerberg “would come to the Oval Office to see me” and “bring his very nice wife to dinners, be as nice as anyone could be, while always plotting install shameful Lock Boxes in a true PLOT AGAINST THE PRESIDENT.”
Then came the threat:
He told me there was nobody like Trump on Facebook. But at the same time, and for whatever reason, steered it against me. We are watching him closely, and if he does anything illegal this time he will spend the rest of his life in prison — as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election.
Zuckerberg recently addressed a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) in which he admitted that the company had made a mistake when it demoted The New York Post‘s controversial story about Hunter Biden’s laptop in October 2020 after being warned about Russian disinformation effort against the Bidens by Trump’s FBI.
Facebook is the reason Trump was elected in the first place (Cambridge Analytica).
Same goes for the Brexit vote. They’re responsible for a lot of damage to the western economies…
So people who interfere with elections should be imprisoned for life? Hmmmmmmm.
I mean he said it, I think we should do it.
I’m guessing Trump does not remember when Elon Musk tried to bully Zuckerberg into a physical fight leading to Zuckerberg accepting the challenge and Musk having to tuck tail and run.
Did it never happen? Lmfao
Of course not. Zuckerberg is 13 years younger and actively trains MMA. Elon is fat, spends all day tweeting bullshit, and is probably addicted to ketamine.
Zuck legitimately might kill Elon on accident if that fight happened. (But fuck em both)
It’ll happen around the same time that Sean Hannity gets waterboarded for charity.
Well we never heard about Zuckerberg breaking Musk in half so I’m going to assume no. Zuckerberg is a piece of shit, but he’s pretty jacked and has spent a significant amount of time training. Musk is an out of shape loser that can barely crawl out of the k hole he’s spent the last decade in.
Well earned hatred for Zuck aside, Trump really seems like he wants to imprison the entirety of the seventy percent of Americans who don’t bend the knee to him. Depending on what level of military support he garners if he manages to weasel his way back to the White House, we could realistically be looking at a Cambodia Khmer Rouge situation.
I’m not a gun guy, but I’ve seriously been thinking about getting one - not for self defense against a militarized police force or unimaginably powerful military, but as a quick out should things turn to round up the Dems bad.
If politics is making you think of killing yourself. Maybe take a step back from politics. There’s more to life than Lemmy.
Unfortunately, there are times when politics takes an interest in all of us, even if we don’t want it to.
“Dictator on Day 1” is putting the pieces in place for his second coup attempt. Russian & other oligarchs (Musk) are helping.

Publicly, I imagine Zuck doesn’t want Trump to win. As Trump is terrible for anyone’s brand.
Privately, Zuck does want Trump to win. Anything to continue to generate more wealth cause who cares about worker rights, LGBQT rights, minority rights, environmental rights, etc. All those pesky rights just get in the way of generating wealth.
We are watching him closely
Remember, anytime he says “we”, it means “I”, because I’m sure nobody else gives a fuck and he always tries to make it sound like his personal rants are actually popular opinion.
It also implies a threat from his rapid mob of fans.

Not only are they fast, they’re also rabid. ;)
But Zuck is a big reason T**** won in 2016. And why he’s doing as well as he is now.
They eat their own if you aren’t entirely fascist enough
True of all fundamentalist movements
Perhaps Trump is pissed that he’s not doing it again this year?
Zuck is doing it again this year. They announced that the team that’s supposed to remove election disinformation is gone. Plus, Zuck said they won’t “give in” to any government censorship, even when the censorship is to protect the public, ie - removing violent right-wing posts that helped fuel the riots in England.
Zuck is already tipping the scale in Trump’s favor. What a fucking moron turning on an ally of his.
Two words:
Cambridge Analytica.
This isn’t a genuine accusation, it’s a loyalty test.
I kinda hope both of them try to put Zucky away. For some reason, I have no robot sympathy.
