Trump has been using social media as a means to bypass traditional media fact checking to get his unfiltered message out. Much to Trump’s dismay, this “End Run” is now being scrutinized by social media admin.

Twitter said on Wednesday it had restricted President Donald Trump's campaign from tweeting after its account shared a video containing false claims about the c****av***s.

The tweet, a video of Trump's interview with Fox News in which he said children are "almost immune" to the v***s, "is in violation of the Twitter Rules on C****-** misinformation," a Twitter spokesperson said in a statement. "The account owner will be required to remove the Tweet before they can Tweet again." The account appeared to have the ability to tweet following Twitter's statement, suggesting the campaign had complied with the order and removed the video. Twitter confirmed to CNN that the campaign's account can tweet again.

Just hours before, Facebook removed a post from Trump's main page featuring the same interview for similar reasons.

Twitter and Facebook have shown an increasing willingness to take action on posts by Trump and those close to him, placing labels on several posts in recent weeks on topics ranging from v****g to protests.

Last week, Twitter imposed a similar restriction on the account of the President's son, Donald Trump Jr., after he posted a video featuring a doctor making false claims about c****av***s cures and stating that people "don't need masks" to prevent the v***s from spreading.

Twitter said at the time that some of the account's functionality, including the ability to tweet, would be restricted for 12 hours.

In June, Twitter put a warning label on a tweet from the President in which he warned if protesters tried to set up an "autonomous zone" in Washington DC they would be "met with serious force!"

Twitter said that tweet violated the company's policy "against abusive behavior, specifically, the presence of a threat of harm against an identifiable group."
