Snapchat will no longer promote U.S. President Donald Trump's account on its platform in the wake of his controversial comments on ongoing protests across the U.S., the company announced Wednesday.

Trump's account is regularly spotlighted in Snapchat's "Discover" feature, which also highlights content from celebrities and news organizations.

"Racial violence and injustice have no place in our society and we stand together with all who seek peace, love, equality, and justice in America," Racusen said.Racusen said the decision was made over the weekend after President Trump's tweets made threats that protesters who breached the White House fence would be "greeted with the most vicious dogs and ominous weapons, I have ever seen.

Adding, "There are plenty of debates to be had about the future of our country and the world. But there is simply no room for debate in our country about the value of human life and the importance of a constant struggle for freedom, equality, and justice. We are standing with all those who stand for peace, love, and justice and we will use our platform to promote good rather than evil."

CTVAtlantic They make fun of him on a daily basis.

Does this make Snapchat complicit in the riots? Obviously taking a political stance.

Good for Snapchat !!!

The Communists can't hide anymore. If theirs a good thing about realDonaldTrump it's the massive light he's shining on this scurage of humanity.

I have a really, really bad feeling about this sudden, unprecedented firestorm of anti-white Marxist propaganda.

First Twitter, now Snapchat fueling race wars. This is systemic racism against white ppl for defending their businesses against *violent *Antifa thugs WARNING GRAPHIC VIDEO Gut wrenching but trying to bring justice to this man's whitelivesmattertoo

Funny snapchat shows more moral leadership than facebook, instagram, twitter, etc...
