Donald Trump doesn’t want Mark Zuckerberg to forget about their long-running beef.
“We already know who you are. DON’T DO IT! ZUCKERBUCKS, be careful!” he added.

It follows a February 2023 Truth Social post in which Trump accused the Facebook founder of cheating in the election, linking to a Fox News report that said Zuckerberg’s $2 million donation to a Georgia election board was being investigated.
“Why isn’t he being prosecuted?” he said at the time. “The Democrats only know how to cheat. America isn’t going to take it much longer!”
There is no evidence that Zuckerberg’s past donations were partisan.
The likelihood of Trump getting elected is looking stronger each day. Trump is leading Biden in many national and battleground polls after the president stumbled through a disastrous debate, which was marked by verbal slip-ups and incoherent sentences.
Trump’s beef with Zuckerberg
The pair’s feud goes back several years to Trump’s presidency.

Trump was ultimately banned from using Facebook following the Capitol Riots, where violent pro-Trump supporters stormed the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C, on January 6, 2021. It resulted in multiple injuries and five deaths.
In a statement at the time, Zuckerberg said the company believed that “the risks of allowing the President to continue to use our service during this period are simply too great.”
The ban was lifted in January 2023.
In September 2022, Trump made confusing statements about his relationship with Zuckerberg at a rally.
He said the Facebook founder has joined him at The White House for dinner “last week,” despite being out of office for more than a year at that point.

“‘Sir, I’d love to have dinner, sir. I’d love to have dinner. I’d love to bring my lovely wife,'” he said, mimicking the supposed conversation.
Representatives for Zuckerberg did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
