Donald Trump has had his personal Facebook account reinstated after a two-year suspension. Parent company Meta said in a blog post today (January 25) that it was adding “new guardrails” to ensure there were no “repeat offenders” who violate its rules.
California-based Meta warned that the former US president could again be removed from the social media site if he “posts further violating content". It said: "The content will be removed and he will be suspended for between one month and two years, depending on the severity of the violation."
Mr Trump, in a post on his own social media network, condemned Facebook’s decision to suspend his account as he praised his own site, Truth Social. He wrote: “FACEBOOK, which has lost Billions of Dollars in value since ‘deplatforming’ your favorite President, me, has just announced that they are reinstating my account. Such a thing should never again happen to a sitting President, or anybody else who is not deserving of retribution!"
