And it will be at least until January 7, 2023, two years after his social media account was suspended, that Trump can reappear on Facebook and Instagram. So with this ban, Mr. Trump will not be able to post anything to influence Facebook and Instagram for the next 2 years. The Facebook account of former US President Donald Trump.

If Facebook finds that there is still a threat to public safety, it will continue to suspend Trump’s entire account. In addition, after the ban is lifted, if there are continued violations, Mr. Trump will face a series of other penalties from Facebook. Former US President Donald Trump.

According to a source from Reuters, this independent Facebook watchdog disagreed with the previous decision to block Mr. Trump indefinitely, and offered them six months to make a decision.

Former President Trump also confirmed that he will not have a private meal with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg when he returns to the White House next time, a move that implies he will run for president again.

However, this blog was taken down a month later because it did not gain significant online traffic.
