Trump is banned from Facebook and Twitter, but experts say he 'absolutely' wouldn't need them to run for president again

Trump remains banned from Twitter permanently and from Facebook until at least January 2023.

But experts told Insider that he "absolutely" does not need them to win in such a hypothetical scenario.

Experts also agreed that the right-wing media ecosystem is sufficient enough for him to get his message across. "Donald Trump tweets things because he needs people to press like and retweet as if it's affirmation for him," Ferguson said.

And Schmidt agreed that the company likely wouldn't ban ads from pro-Trump groups since Facebook's ad business generates a sizable profit for the firm.
