| Meta Title | Twitter Permanently Bans Donald Trump |
| Meta Description | âIn the context of horrific events this week, we made it clear on Wednesday that additional violations of the Twitter Rules would potentially result in this very course of action,â Twitter announced Friday evening. The account was immediately deactivated and users of the service can no longer even view the presidentâs past tweets. |

| Boilerpipe Text | President Donald Trumpâs personal account, @realDonaldTrump, has been struck with a total and absolute ban from Twitter just days after his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol building and just 12 days before he leaves office. The president, who relies upon Twitter as his personal communications platform of choice, was âpermanently suspendedâ for risk of inciting further violence.
The president was previously suspended for a 12 hour period on Wednesday night into Thursday. The president made a brief return to Twitter on Thursday night when that ban was lifted. At the time, he shared a video reading prepared remarks condemning the Capitol Hill riot and insurrection after political figures from both major parties cited Trump for inciting the rampage that delayed Congressâs certification of President-elect Joe Bidenâs Electoral College victory. |
