Trump Threatens Mark Zuckerberg With Prison For ‘The Rest of His Life’ If He Uses Facebook to ‘Cheat’ in 2024: ‘We Are Watching Him Closely’ - eviltoast

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.

    The fake billionaire should probably avoid threatening the real billionaire. Anyway, carry on.

    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.

        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.

        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)

        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.

          I mean it’s possible that he’s working for the other team now, and will be actually influencing for Harris. This would also require removing those teams. Who knows what happens behind the curtain.

            I think guys like Zuck only have the bottom line in mind whenever they decide pro or con a candidate. And with a Democrat in office the chance of getting worse regulation is a bit higher. So he’s probably not actively trying to help that happen

      The message donnie is meaning to convey is if Zuck doesn’t give him an assist again, he’ll be in prison.

      Also, despite what all the qons, the tankies, the tone police, and the likes of donnie, Elon, and Matt Taibbi say - exercising caution over the “laptop” during the election was only all too important.

    “Dictator on Day 1” is putting the pieces in place for his second coup attempt. Russian & other oligarchs (Musk) are helping.

    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.

    Zuckerberg has nothing to fear. Unlike Trump, he’s a real billionaire and they make the rules.

      You misunderstand. Trump doesn’t mean cheat when he says chest. He means anyone who doesn’t support him. It’s the same thing the Nazis did. They changed the rules to make political opponents criminals and/or just killed them in the street. They use words as weapons, and they often don’t mean what a normal person assumes it to mean.

    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.

    “…we are watching him closely”

      the dotard who doesn’t understand how a windmill works is going to ascertain the subtleties of employed algorithms.

      You’ve made the mistake of thinking they care about facts. What they mean is “if we even think you are favouring our opponents we will punish you for it.” What they are leaving unsaid is “you better favour us so that we don’t say you were favouring our opponents.”

      Facts don’t matter, all that matters is the threat of his mob. That’s why the cemetery he illegally filmed in isn’t pressing charges.
