Katrina Pierson, Trump Campaign Spokeswoman, responds to comments made by Facebook's Zuckerberg about not building walls.
Katrina Pierson, a spokeswoman for GOP front-runner Donald Trump's presidential campaign, said Wednesday that she can't take Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg seriously after the tech billionaire made a thinly-veiled reference to her candidate's positions.
"Self-righteousness isn't very proactive: We can talk about taxes, we can talk about jobs and even immigration, but that doesn't really put food on the table and save lives," she told CNBC's "Squawk on the Street."
"I think I'll take Mark Zuckerberg seriously when he gives up all of his private security, moves out of his posh neighborhood and comes live in a modest neighborhood near a border town, and then I'm sure his attitude would change," she added.
At Facebook's F8 developer conference on Tuesday, Zuckerberg spoke out against those seeking to build walls — physical and digital.
"As I look around and I travel around the world, I'm starting to see people and nations turning inward, against this idea of a connected world and a global community," he said. "I hear fearful voices calling for building walls and distancing people they label as others. For blocking free expression, for slowing immigration, reducing trade, and in some cases around the world even cutting access to the internet."
Pierson fired back and said that Silicon Valley should stick to what they do that gives America a competitive advantage.

"It's great that we can have innovation in this country, but you should be able to do that without putting the lives of Americans at risk."

Great stuff.
Good for her.Point well made.Move to south Texas and then we’ll talk.
Zuckerberg is King of the CHEAP LABOR EXPRESS...
Bam! Tactical Nuke hit there Katrina!
Yuckerberg is a champion of H-1B visas too.
Why?
Because 40 BILLION at age 30 just isn’t quite enough.
In short, Zuckerberg's an out of touch puffed-up elite jerk...
Zuckerberg...I despise that snotty little creep.
Zuckerberg is your typical elitist. The real objective is to create a global system dominated by the rich at the top and a huge underclass fighting each other for scraps.
Good for her. Keep swinging with punches like this, Kat.
Zuckerberg is the poster child for feminine men of America.
-Skinny jeans.
-Silly tats.
-A Hello Kitty cover on his iPhone.
(disclaimer - I loathe FB)
Suckie Zuckie
Years ago Rockefeller was asked how much money does a person need
He said just a little bit more.
AN OUTRIGHT DECLARATION that he is a Globalist! Globalism is the end of American Sovereignty.
I remember last summer finishing off a cruise (now we rather finish off Cruz), and we stayed in Boston during the 4th of July. They were on terror alert.
Looking around Boston I saw there was no Hispanic population there to displace citizens. Everything looks like it did for California back in the late 70s.
So I think Boston or Z are unaware and have never lived the problem.
So if they don't see a problem in their life there is no problem as far as they are concerned.
At 60 you can get a job in Boston.
At 60 there is no job for you in CA and you have to speak Spanish as an American to even find a job at all unless you are in a liscenced profession.
A perfectly phrased counter punch. She’s good. Really good.

Good.
Mark Zucks. Plain and simple.
Boom! (shaka-laka)
Yes
Move anywhere on the Mexican border and look the residents in the eye and talk like that.
We can have lots of interactions with lots of countries and borders need not hinder it.
She splained it to him in words he could comprehend
You go girl!
the guy who bought 6 houses in order to avoid simply having neighbors and travels around with 12 bodyguards fears that people want a wall...?!
That chick is dynamite! Go Katrina! Get the little bassturds!
