But I was called by Mark Zuckerberg yesterday, the day before, on this same subject. And he actually apologized, he said they’d made a mistake, etc., etc., and that they’re correcting their mistake. Google, nobody called from Google. One of the things I do in a show like yours. You, your show, you know, you see it on Fox. But where you really see it is all over the place. They take clips of your show that you’re doing right now with me, and if I do a good job, they’re going to vote for me. They’re going to vote for me, because it’s not just on Fox. It’s on Fox, is a smaller part of it. You’re on all over this, those little beautiful cell phones. You’re on, you’re all over the place. You have a product. You have a great product. You have a great brand. So you have to get out, you have to get out. You have to do things like your show, and other shows, and, Google, has been very bad. They’ve been very irresponsible. And I have a feeling that Google is going to be close to shut down. Because I don’t think Congress is going to take it.

    This now makes me wonder if I could call Trump and just claim to be some random famous person and he would take me seriously and go on the news about it. I honestly can’t decide what is weirder, making up a random, easily verifiably false story about lizardman calling to apologize to the ex president about his company, or the possibility that this may have actually happened.

      It actually happened, except it wasn’t Marc Zuckerberg that called, but Jerry Zucker.
