Mark Zuckerberg said this week that Donald Trump’s reaction to being shot in the ear on Saturday, which included him raising a fist and shouting “fight,” was “one of the most badass things I’ve ever seen in my life.” The Meta CEO stopped short of officially endorsing Trump, as fellow multi-billionaire Elon Musk did this week, but he had nothing but praise for him in an interview with Bloomberg on Thursday. “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 badass things I’ve ever seen in my life,” he said. “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.” Zuckerberg added that he plans on “not playing a significant role in the election” and “that includes not endorsing either of the candidates.”
