Former President and Republican presidential nomineeĀ Donald TrumpĀ threatens to imprison billionaire entrepreneur and founder of FacebookĀ Mark ZuckerbergĀ in his new book,Ā Save America.

Underneath a picture of Zuckerberg meeting with Trump at the White House during the latterā€™s presidency, Trump writes that Zuckerberg ā€œwould come to the Oval Office to see meā€ and ā€œbring 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.ā€

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 ā€” as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election.

Zuckerberg recently addressed a letter to House Judiciary Committee ChairmanĀ Jim JordanĀ (R-OH) in which he admitted that the company had made a mistake when it demotedĀ The New York Postā€˜s controversial story aboutĀ Hunter Bidenā€™sĀ laptop in October 2020 after being warned about Russian disinformation effort against the Bidens by Trumpā€™s FBI.

      You misunderstand. Trump doesnā€™t mean cheat when he says chest. He means anyone who doesnā€™t support him. Itā€™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 donā€™t mean what a normal person assumes it to mean.
