Zuckerberg said, "at least $600 billion by '28 in the U.S." Apple CEO Tim Cook made the same statement, while Pichai mentioned $250 billion overall."

During the meal, Trump congratulated Pichai on the recent news of the determined penalties in Google's landmark antitrust case. The penalties were significantly lighter than what the DOJ had been seeking."
