Former President Donald Trump wants to get back on Facebook for the 2024 presidential race, and while the political advertising landscape on the platform has changed, access to his account could still give his campaign a boost.
After the formal term of Trump’s two-year ban from Facebook ended Jan. 7, his campaign’s general counsel petitioned Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and other executives to reinstate the 45th President’s profile in a letter this week. An internal working group at Meta had already convened to discuss the issue and a spokesperson for Facebook’s parent company told CNN they would announce the resulting decision in the coming weeks.
