The former Meta executive who recommended banning President Donald Trump from Facebook says the decision still keeps him awake at night. Nick Clegg, the former British deputy prime minister who spent seven years as Meta’s top political fixer, said suspending Trump in January 2021 for posts stoking the Capitol riot was a “very, very uncomfortable” moment that continues to haunt him. “I found that really weighed on me very heavily and still does,” Clegg, 58, told the Guardian.
