Since he was un-suspended on January 2023, former President Trump was subject to stricter penalties if he violated Meta’s rules. Now, Meta is lifting those restrictions ahead of the Republican National Convention.
Former President Donald Trump will no longer be subject to extra severe penalties for content rule violations on his Facebook and Instagram accounts, Meta said on Friday. Previously, Trump’s account could be fully suspended for even a relatively small infraction that wouldn’t lead to the same penalty for any other account. Now, with the Republican National Convention taking place next week, he’ll be treated more like everyone else.
He added that the previous restrictions to Trump’s accounts “were a response to extreme and extraordinary circumstances, and have not had to be deployed.” No politician has tested and contorted Meta’s content policies like Trump. The company famously suspended him alongside other platforms after January 6th, 2021.
