Facebook is considering reinstating former President Donald Trump to its platform, with a decision to be made in the coming weeks.
to a two-year ban, set to expire on January 7, 2023. At that point, Meta will consider allowing Trump back on the platforms.
Facebook spokesperson Andy Stone told CNN that the announcement about Trump’s return to the platform will occur “in the coming weeks,” meaning that it is unlikely there will be an announcement about Trump’s ban by January 7. Nick Clegg, Facebook’s president of global affairs and former deputy prime minister of the United Kingdom, is reportedly overseeing the decision to allow Trump to return to the platform.
In a blog post in June 2021, Clegg explained how the company would consider allowing Trump to return to the platform, stating: “If we determine that there is still a serious risk to public safety, we will extend the restriction for a set period of time and continue to re-evaluate until that risk has receded.”
In December, two Democratic lawmakers urged Facebook to keep Trump suspended from its platforms, citing his recent posts on Truth Social as evidence that he would likely violate the company’s policies if given the opportunity to return. The Democrat lawmakers argued that Meta should maintain Trump’s suspension in order to protect its users.“For Meta to credibly maintain a legitimate election integrity policy, it is essential that your company maintain its platform ban on former president Trump.
