Mark Zuckerberg Says Trump With Fist in Air After Getting Shot is ‘One of the Most Bada** Things I’ve Ever Seen in My Life’
Mark Zuckerberg said seeing former President Donald Trump with his fist in the air after getting shot during last weekend’s assassination attempt was “one of the most bada** things I’ve ever seen in my life.”
Zuckerberg — CEO of Meta, the parent company of Facebook — revealed his reaction during an interview Thursday at his company’s headquarters in Menlo Park, California, Bloomberg reported.
“Now look, I mean there’s obviously a lot of crazy stuff going on in the world,” Zuckerberg told Emily Chang of “The Circuit,” which is part of Bloomberg Originals, before shifting to the attempt on Trump’s life in Butler, Pennsylvania, last Saturday.
Mark Zuckerberg said that Donald Trump’s immediate reaction after being shot was “badass” and inspiring — without endorsing the former president.

“And I mean, on a personal note … seeing Donald Trump get up after getting shot in the face and pump his fist in the air with the American flag [in the background] is one of the most bada** things I’ve ever seen in my life,” Zuckerberg said with an incredulous laugh.
Zuckerberg added that “on some level, as an American, it’s … hard to not get kind of emotional about that spirit and that fight, and I think that that’s why a lot of people like the guy.” (Read more from “Mark Zuckerberg Says Trump With Fist in Air After Getting Shot is ‘One of the Most Bada** Things I’ve Ever Seen in My Life'” HERE)
