Whut? Claim: Zuckerberg wanted to sell FB stock; retain control anyway; go work in government. All at the same time.https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-12-08/facebook-s-investors-criticize-marc-andreessen-for-conflict-of-interest …pic.twitter.com/zBr02SNj7g
never too late. I bet Trump would welcome a two-year stint from Zuckerberg
