Donald Trump Account Was Blocked On Snapchat Application, Because of This
News24xx.com - The Snapchat application said it had stopped promoting President Donald Trump's account.
As a result, the account can no longer be found on the application. The company said it would "not strengthen voices inciting racial violence and injustice".
This decision follows Mr. Trump said that "ferocious dogs" and "unpleasant weapons" would be used on protesters if they breached the White House fence.
This follows Twitter's decision to hide several presidential positions.
The parent company Snapchat said: "Racial violence and injustice have no place in our society and we stand together with all those who seek peace, love, equality, and justice in America."

The move will likely add to the tension between the White House and social media, which increased when Twitter added a fact check the tag to a number of President's tweets last week.
Twitter then hid one of the president's tweets because it violated its rules about "glorifying violence".
Snapchat's actions will also put more pressure on Facebook.

Its chief executive Mark Zuckerberg has rejected internal and external calls to intervene in connection with posting on his platform. Zuckerberg said the principle of corporate freedom of speech meant the presidency had to be left unchanged.
Though President Trump is known to have more than one million followers on Snapchat, according to the Bloomberg news agency. It said the application was seen as a "main battleground" by Trump's re-election campaign because it offered a way to reach first-time voters.
