Team Trump is working to get back on Facebook.
According to a Fox News report, former President and 2024 candidate Donald Trump’s campaign team has reached out to Facebook in an attempt to get the Donald back on the platform; Facebook “needs us more than we need them,” Trump says.
“It has been considered a major business mistake for them, Twitter, and others,” he added.
“If they took us back, it would help them greatly, and that’s okay with me,” Trump continued. “But they need us more than we need them.”
“We are talking to them, and we’ll see how it all works out.”
From Fox News:
Trump was banned from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and Snapchat after the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021. The former president has since created his own social media company, Truth Social, which serves as a platform for his statements and announcements.
As for Facebook, however, Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung told Fox News Digital it is a platform that campaign officials view as critical — specifically for the campaign’s data operation, including advertising, fundraising and more — as the team works to energize its voters.
“Free speech is an essential part of democracy and President Trump must be allowed to speak directly to the American people so they can be informed about his vision as they cast their ballots,” said Cheung. “We have seen how Big Tech has tried to silence President Trump and other conservatives, and continuing this abhorrent practice is un-American and undemocratic.”
Meanwhile, Trump says his social media platform, TRUTH Social, is performing very well.
“Truth Social is through the roof,” Trump told Fox News Digital on Wednesday.
