Zuckerberg Praises Trump's Resilience After Shooting Attempt
Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg has praised former President Donald Trump's resilience after a recent shooting attempt, calling it "one of the most badass things I've ever seen in my life."
In a recent interview with Bloomberg, Zuckerberg opened up about his feelings after watching Trump narrowly escape the crosshairs of a deranged gunman. He admitted to feeling a surge of patriotism after seeing the Republican leader get to his feet and pump his fist in the air.
Zuckerberg prefaced his answer by noting that he would not be endorsing Trump or President Joe Biden this year but said it's undeniable how "crazy" things have gotten around the world this election year. He also noted that he would not be endorsing any candidate in the upcoming election.
Zuckerberg's reticence on endorsing candidates doesn't mean he hides his patriotism. He has made a semi-annual tradition out of surfing with an American flag and releasing videos of his escapades online around the Fourth of July each year.
However, more recent changes to newsfeed preferences on Facebook and Instagram mean most users will have to begin opting in if they would like to see political content, a change that's come after years of pressure to reform both platforms’ influence on American elections.
Zuckerberg's counterpart and sometimes rival Elon Musk, who owns X, has taken the opposite approach, fully endorsing President Trump after the shooting and regularly espousing his opinions on news of the day. A recent report by the Wall Street Journal indicated that Musk was prepared to contribute upwards of $45 million per month to a super PAC supporting Trump, though Musk denied that claim in a post while insisting he is working behind the scenes to elect the Republican.
This latest praise from Zuckerberg comes as a surprise to many, as he has remained consistently coy about his political leanings since bringing Facebook online from his college dorm room at Harvard. However, his team at the quintessential social network provided the 2016 Trump campaign and digital director Brad Parscale with an exceptional level of support after they chose to heavily target voters using the platform’s algorithm.
The shooting attempt on Trump has sparked a renewed sense of patriotism and unity among many Americans, with Zuckerberg's praise adding to the growing sentiment. As the election year continues, it remains to be seen how this latest development will impact the race for the White House.
