According to POLITICO, former US President Donald Trump wrote in his new book to be published next week that Meta Chairman Mark Zuckerberg conspired against him during the 2020 US election, and said that if Zuckerberg did so again, he would spend the rest of his life in prison.
This represents the latest attack by Trump on Zuckerberg, whom he has repeatedly accused of interfering in the last U.S. presidential election. The comments also come against the backdrop of Meta taking steps to assure conservatives that it will not influence this year's campaign.
Save America, a book written by Trump and set to be published on September 3, includes an undated photo of Trump meeting with Zuckerberg at the White House. Trump mentioned that Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, donated $420 million to fund election infrastructure during the 2020 election.
A Meta spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
