I'm not sure what Zuckerberg can do to combat the virality of Trump, I have some suggestions, which he may not like but he'll need to do:
* Ban Trump from Facebook (co-op with Twitter to ban him there also)
* Flood Facebook with ads of people helping others, doing good, committing selfless acts
* Forgo the traditional presidential campaign, instead of rallies do an eye-catching Apple-style presentation of people, their situations and solutions.
* Stick to an optimistic message no. matter. what. Do not get in the mud.
* Do not mention your competitor by name
* Every week ask open ended policy/progress questions to an audience on FB (for instance, What would the year 2030 look like? Mars for humanity?)
* Every week also feature an interview with an activist, about their mission, how they're changing the world and how the audience can help.
* The people who helped build Facebook who are still around must absolutely be involved in the campaign as a testament to Zuckerberg's character and perseverance.
* As campaign items distribute and sell posters of great SV pioneers and leaders. Beautiful ones of Jobs, Gates, even social justice and advocacy leaders in the world like Yousafzai, etc. And obviously past leaders like Obama, Hillary, Bill, etc. Don't make it about you, but about visionaries who push the boundaries and change things.
Zuckerberg has a significant chance to not end up like Hillary, but honestly, I would not dare to campaign in 2020; however I would be more than happy to get Zuckerberg across 270 with a campaign the world will remember.
- Chaebixi 9y ago> Ban Trump from Facebook (co-op with Twitter to ban him there also) So, what exactly do you think would happen if they did that? I'll tell you: Facebook will start having some serious conversations with government regulators about all kinds of fun things like antitrust, telecommunications regulations, etc.
