There is no hypocrisy here, this is a non story.
You are comparing apples to zucchinis

I think there is rather a difference to building a wall around a private residence as apposed to building a wall around the southern borders with the specific purpose of keeping people out based on there nationality.
If Zuckerburg were to state the reason for his wall is to retard the entry of Mexicans and called them rapists, murderers and drug dealers, now that would indeed be an issue.

lol, no its not. Trump is speaking for America when he talks about his wall (I am an American and I do not agree).
Who is Zuckerburg speaking for? Himself, his property.

...a decent slice of the nation utterly disagree...
A majority of Americans agree with Donald Trump that a wall should be built along the U.S. border to prevent illegal immigrants from entry, a new poll has found.
According to a Rasmussen Reports survey of 1,000 likely voters conducted Aug. 17 to 18, 51 percent of likely voters are in favor of building a wall, compared to 37 percent who are against it and 12 percent who are unsure.

I think you understand perfectly what i trying to convey, but ile rephrase the wording shall i.
"If Zuckerburg were to state the reason for his wall is to retard the entry of Hawaiian's and called them rapists, murderers and drug dealers, now that would indeed be an issue".

Why?
Well first of all, it's Mark Zuckerburg. If he is having a pool party, I would imagine that those attending are going to be of the relatively famous variety, and don't want to be photographed in their bathing suits by perverts, weirdos, and other professional photojournalists. Also, if he wants to be able to walk around his home and garden with his manhood flapping in the breeze, then he should be able to do that, without having to worry about offending someone, and without the risk of being easily surveilled from positions around his property. If he wants to lay down with a woman next to his koi fish pond, or get it on in his pool, the chances are that he is not going to want to have to concern himself with what the neighbours think of his behaviour.
Also, it is his personal property, and frankly, if we are really living in a world where even Zuckerburg cannot afford some bloody privacy, then we really are all pretty much doomed.

I don't think that would be an issue either, its his property and he can take a big sh*t on it if he wants and build a sh*t factory to sell to his fans if he wants. (no one would buy it, hes not that great)
However, Trump is speaking for America (me included) and I disagree, many of us do.
If, however, MZ lived in a neighborhood and payed an HOA that said he could not build a wall around his property...then he may have legal issues (also for the sh*t factory if he chose so).
However it does not in any way have any relevance to Trumps wall!

This is not the same, its his property, he can do whatever he wants.
Exactly we can build a wall around our country. The concept is the same.

Survey the whole nation on it, rather than a measly thousand, and see if your result holds. I doubt very much whether you could find such a survey that would accurately model the wiser opinion on this issue, unless a much larger sample size was used. But you already knew that, having been around here long enough to know this stuff.
