On January 6, 2021, after the Capitol Hill riots, Donald Trump was banned for two years. Meta said in January that the ban on Trump’s Facebook and Instagram would be lifted in the coming weeks.
Although Meta also warned that if the former President violates the rules again, the suspension can be extended. In fact, Donald Trump had claimed in his post that there was massive voting rigging during the 2020 presidential election. It was only after this that Facebook banned Trump’s account on charges of inciting Capitol Hill violence.
