if he spread lies

Nick Clegg, Facebook's vice president of global affairs, said Sunday that whether former President Donald Trump encourages violence would be the key factor that determines if he is allowed to use its platform in the future.

"It's very difficult for me to make hypothetical judgements," Clegg told George Stephanopoulos during an appearance on ABC News' "This Week."

Stephanopoulos noted that Trump had once more repeated false claims at a Saturday night rally in North Carolina, the former president's first public speaking engagement in three months. As The New York Times reported, Trump at the rally repeated his false claims about the 2020 election being "rigged."

The president was suspended from Facebook following his incitement of the January 6 riot at the US Capitol that resulted in five deaths. Trump was also banned from using Twitter. In May, Facebook's Oversight Board affirmed the company's decision to suspend the former president but asked the company to reevaluate the decision.

Facebook VP defends Trump suspension as reasonable and proportionate

Defending Facebook's latest ruling on the former president, executive Nick Clegg said Sunday that the two-year suspension of Donald Trump reflected improved processes.

"Our job is not to take the decisions with an eye to, you know, which side of the political aisle is going to agree or disagree more with us, but just to do so in a way that is fair, transparent and proportionate," said Clegg, Facebook's vice president of global affairs.

Facebook suspended Trump indefinitely after the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Last week, the social media giant announced he was suspended for two years from the date of the initial suspension, with the possibility of having his right to post on Facebook restored at that point.

Speaking on ABC's "This Week with George Stephanopoulos," Clegg said an "independent oversight board" concluded that Facebook was fully within its rights in barring Trump on Jan. 7 but there were problems with the way it was done.

You ruined the Lib Dems by encouraging the coalition of the party with the bloody Tories. And now you want to unleash Don the Con back in the world? Have you not learned?
