White House vows to ignore Trump if Facebook reinstates him

White House press secretary Jen Psaki’s answer as to whether the Biden administration’s messaging would change if Facebook decides to reinstate former President Donald Trump to the platform was a simple “no”.

Facebook’s independent Oversight Board is expected to announce a decision on Wednesday as to whether the company will reverse or uphold its indefinite ban on Trump’s accounts.

A reporter asked Psaki during a White House briefing on Tuesday: “If [Trump] is reinstated is there any change in strategy that the White House would put in messaging?”
