Trump said 'weirdo' Mark Zuckerberg joined him at the White House for dinner 'last week'

Despite being out of office for a year and a half, Donald Trump said 'weirdo' Mark Zuckerberg joined him at the White House for dinner 'last week'

Donald Trump said at a Saturday rally that Meta executive Mark Zuckerberg joined him for dinner at the White House "last week," despite having been out of office for more than a year and a half.

At a Pennsylvania rally supporting senate candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz and gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano, the first since the FBI searched his Mar-a-Lago residence, Trump briefly fixated on the chief executive of Facebook's parent company.

"Last week, the weirdo — he's a weirdo — Mark Zuckerberg came to the White House, kissed my ass all night," Trump said during the speech, going on to mimic their alleged conversation: "'Sir, I'd love to have dinner, sir. I'd love to have dinner. I'd love to bring my lovely wife.' All right, Mark, come on in. 'Sir, you're number one on Facebook. I'd like to congratulate you.' Thank you very much, Mark. I appreciate it."

Trump has previously made similar comments about Zuckerberg. Last year, following his suspension from Facebook, he said the executive "used to come to the White House to kiss [his] ass" and called Zuckerberg "sick" for deplatforming him.

I think his dementia is firmly established. His sanity has been questionable - at best - for the past 6 years.

Since he started his "Big Lie, Stop the Steal" garbage he's definitely stepped through the looking glass into a world untethered to reality.

Of course his MAGA cult has always been living in a world untethered to reality, so they take every word that dribbles out of his mouth as gospel.

Trump might have early dementia but he's also crafty. This was a calculated statement. He wants his followers to think he's still president, as he claims, as they want to believe.

In his head Mar-a-loco is the White House. So the slip of the tongue is just his reality.

But he always says Zuckerberg kissed his ass. I always think there were other body parts of TFG that Zuckerberg's mouth came into contact with. Seems if money's involved, Zuckerberg will do it.

but Mara Lago is NOT the White House.

That being said, you'd be hard pressed to find two people that deserve each other more than Donnie Short Fingers and Zuckerberg do.

This is like Hitler insulting Mussolini

I have been thinking that for the last month actually that this will be his only viable defense.

However, I’m not sure his ego will allow it.

His age, diet, stress, drug use are catching up to him....he reverts back to phrases and language he has used before once off script. He is slipping, and the stress he is now under will show his inabilities ....he will talk just gibberish

It was a very odd rally because the 2 political candidates were only allowed to speak for about 5 seconds

Trump spoke for over 90 minutes. And as you can guess it was An insane rambling of words put together in what he thought was a great speech a perfect speech.🤣🤣🤣

And the guy running for governor of Pennsylvania oh my goodness that man is terrifying.

And he also gave a shout Out to the guy running In Maryland. I want to say now to the universe please don't let that man win, we just bought property in Maryland. Please keep him from the governor's house.

A lot of dementia patients can mask their symptoms for a while, sometimes a long while. I think the constant refrain of Biden being "too old and losing his mind" is but another projection from the rightards, while, in fact, the feeble one is DJT. Hopefully more and more MAGATs will see it.

It's just a retelling and embellishing of a lie he told two years ago when the subject changed to social media and his brain latched onto whatever "see how important I am" story he tells about his influence over Twitter or Facebook or the networks he has in his mental association bin.
Yes, he's probably fading, as he forgot to take replace "White House" with Bedminster, but he probably tells a version of this story to himself to make him feel powerful all the time.

"Last Week" also sounds like a toss away line he would use to imply he still has relevancy.

was it a couple years ago and he's saying "last week" or was it fairly recently?

on edit: i'm answering my own question i guess


Despite transitioning out of presidential life a year and a half ago, former President Donald Trump recalled a 2019 White House dinner with “weirdo” Mark Zuckerberg as “last week.” That sound you hear is the collective chuckle from those on social media poking fun at the ex-prez.

“Last week, the weirdo — he’s a weirdo — Mark Zuckerberg came to the White House, kissed my ass all night,” the former president said at a Pennsylvania rally Saturday.
