Most Powerful Person in the World Meets Donald Trump - Gizmodo

Photo: White House/Facebook

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg met with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office of the White House on Thursday. And while Zuck didn’t bother to mention the meeting on any of his social media channels, the president proudly posted a photo of the two men shaking hands on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram (which is also owned by Facebook).

Zuckerberg, arguably the most powerful person in the world as the leader of a company with data on over 2.3 billion people, was in Washington, D.C. on Thursday to meet with a number of legislators. One legislator, Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri, even told Zuckerberg to sell off Instagram and WhatsApp, an idea that the billionaire Facebook founder was not willing to entertain.

Zuckerberg’s sit-down with President Trump reportedly included Dan Scavino, the White House Director of Social Media, but was not open to journalists and news photographers. A Facebook spokesperson told CBS News that the meeting with Trump was “good” and “constructive,” though the tech giant did not respond to questions from Gizmodo.

President Trump has repeatedly denounced the heads of social media companies like Twitter and Facebook over the past few years, claiming without evidence that they harbor an anti-conservative bias and restrict the speech of Trump supporters. Trump has even asked why supposedly liberal institutions aren’t censored on platforms like Facebook, a question that would seem to contradict his alleged support for free speech.

Zuckerberg also met with Democratic Senator Mark Warner of Virginia this week to discuss the future of social media. Warner organized a dinner in Washington on Wednesday night where they talked about Libra, Facebook’s digital currency that’s already controversial all around the world. Zuck told Warner that Facebook and the Libra Association, a Switzerland-based group of companies, would not launch the cryptocurrency until they got buy-in from U.S. financial regulators, according to the Washington Post.

Trump supporters who use Facebook left thousands of comments on the White House photo to express their disgust with Zuckerberg, and demonstrated just how vital and insightful these social media platforms can be for a functioning democracy like the United States.

“Pls suspensed (sic) all account communist,” wrote another Facebook user.

But perhaps one Facebook user who commented on the Trump-Zuck photo said it best...

Took the words right out of my mouth.

I can’t wait for the 2020 presidential election. It’s going to be both normal and good. It’s tough to predict the future, but at least we can all count of those two things. The next election will be normal and it will be good.
