Trump spokeswoman comes out swinging against Zuckerberg

Trump spokeswoman...

Katrina Pierson, Trump Campaign Spokeswoman, responds to comments made by Facebook's Zuckerberg about not building walls.

Katrina Pierson, a spokeswoman for GOP front-runner Donald Trump's presidential campaign, said Wednesday that she can't take Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg seriously after the tech billionaire made a thinly-veiled reference to her candidate's positions.

"Self-righteousness isn't very proactive: We can talk about taxes, we can talk about jobs and even immigration, but that doesn't really put food on the table and save lives," she told CNBC's "Squawk on the Street."

"I think I'll take Mark Zuckerberg seriously when he gives up all of his private security, moves out of his posh neighborhood and comes live in a modest neighborhood near a border town, and then I'm sure his attitude would change," she added.

At Facebook's F8 developer conference on Tuesday, Zuckerberg spoke out against those seeking to build walls — physical and digital.

"As I look around and I travel around the world, I'm starting to see people and nations turning inward, against this idea of a connected world and a global community," he said. "I hear fearful voices calling for building walls and distancing people they label as others. For blocking free expression, for slowing immigration, reducing trade, and in some cases around the world even cutting access to the internet."

Pierson fired back and said that Silicon Valley should stick to what they do that gives America a competitive advantage.

"It's great that we can have innovation in this country, but you should be able to do that without putting the lives of Americans at risk."

Does Zuck have a wall around his house? We do know he bought out five neighboring houses for more privacy. He bought 700 acres in Hawaii to build another guarded compound.

Everyone in Zuckerberg neighborhood says that his kooky security stares at them and sometimes follows them around.

it’s impossible for him to adhere to even a basic modicum of community consideration.

But his standards for YOU?

If you mind losing your job or your kids getting molested then youre a xenophobic isolationist.

Zuckerberg buys up the neighbourhood houses, then picks and chooses who lives in those houses.

Zuckerburg, neighbour from Hell

Yup, who cares what this anti-social dope has to say!

Suckie Zuckie: “ Sadly, there are still some middle class, and even upper middle class Americans who still have a job. “

I’m no trump supporter, but Zuckerberg is nuttier than a liberal fruitcake.

Connect to the terrorists, criminals, and other various scum all you want. Just don’t let them in the country.

Zuckerberg concocted a little program that let guys rate the hotness of women using side by side pictures.

That’s about the limit of his mental capacity.

If I had 12 bodyguards, I probably wouldn’t worry much either.

Does Zuckerberg have locks on his doors and windows? If so, why? He should allow whoever wants to enter his home to do so, and take what they want.

Yeah, there ought to be a law against “making too much at too young an age”, right?

I think he’s an idiot savant, seriously. He thinks the real world operates like his glorified party line. He’s brilliant at computers and programming, everything else though he’s an utter moron. He even gets confused dressing himself. Anything other than a gray tee shirt he’s lost.

While I don’t agree with Zuckerburg, I am not sure personal attacks on prominent citizens that disagree with you is a unifying strategy.

Speaking to your policy points and how you see them benefiting the nation, yes, but calling out people by name risks alienating all who agree with them.

Displaying this personality trait also does not sit well with those of us who have a problem with politicians who are inclined to personal attacks on citizens.

When one advocates the wholesale slaughter of American jobs, and gives them to india and China to save a buck?
Y E S

And that shows all of us that you are not a capitalist, merely a whore like Zuckerberg!

Make as much money as you can, but don’t be an anti-American whore when you do it. You aren’t very intelligent, are you?
