WASHINGTON – Twitter on Friday permanently suspended U.S. President Donald Trump’s account to prevent further incitement of violence in the United States.
The account of Donald Trump had 88 million followers was suspended for the glorification of violence. The Twitter authorities confirmed the development in a tweet. After a close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence, the tweet said.
It was the first time Twitter has banned a head of state although Trump still has access to the official @WhiteHouse and @POTUS accounts but will lose this when his presidential term ends.
Earlier on Wednesday, Trump was locked out of his account for 12 hours after he called attackers as patriots.
