Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg visited President-elect Donald Trump Wednesday at Mar-a-Lago.
Stephen Miller, a Trump adviser, confirmed visit in “The Ingraham Angle” on Fox News Channel.
“Mark Zuckerberg has been very clear about his desire to be a supporter of and a participant in this change that we’re seeing all around America, all around the world with this reform movement that Donald Trump is leading,” Miller said.
“Mark Zuckerberg, like so many business leaders, understands that President Trump is an agent of change, an agent of prosperity,” Miller added.
Miller said Zuckerberg “has his own interests,” and sees Trump’s next presidency as a chance at “national renewal.”
“Mark, obviously, he has his own interests, and he has his own company, and he has his own agenda,” Miller said. “But he’s made clear that he wants to support the national renewal of America under President Trump’s leadership.”
Zuckerberg praised Trump in July after seeing the then-candidates picture following an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, when he raised his fist in the air.
“Seeing Donald Trump get up after getting shot in the face and pump his fist in the air with the American flag is one of the most bada – things I’ve ever seen in my life,” Zuckerberg said shortly after the shooting.
“On some level as an American, it’s like 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,” he said.
