‘What an absolute slap in the face to 75 million Americans,’ Eric Trump said in response to the warning from a Facebook staff member.
Ahead of Tuesday evening’s interview between Lara Trump and former President of the U.S. Donald Trump, Facebook notified the Trump family of an ongoing blanket ban on any content “in the voice of President Trump,” and that they would take action against any attempt to post his comments on their social media profiles on Facebook or Instagram.

The employee, identified in the exchange only as “Katelyn,” confirmed that any attempt to upload comments made “will be removed if posted, resulting in additional limitations on accounts that posted it.”
Katelyn confirmed that the ban extends to “all campaign accounts and Pages, including Team Trump, other campaign messaging vehicles on our platforms, and former surrogates.”
Eric Trump lashed out at the Big Tech company for dismissing the millions of Americans who voted for Trump and might like to follow him outside of the White House. “What an absolute slap in the face to 75 million Americans,” he said.
Lara Trump received a similar notice from Katelyn, informing her that content had been removed from her Facebook page “that featured Trump speaking.” Trump was advised that “[in] line with the block we placed on Donald Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts, further content posted in the voice of Donald Trump will be removed and result in additional limitations on the accounts.”
