Twitter has disabled a video by Donald Trump’s campaign team that pays tribute to George Floyd, saying it is the subject of a copyright complaint.

 

The three-minute 45-second video uploaded on Trump’s YouTube channel was tweeted by his campaign on June 3 and the tribute video was retweeted nearly 7,000 times by people including the US president and his son Donald Jr.

“We respond to valid copyright complaints sent to us by a copyright owner or their authorized representatives,” a Twitter representative said on Friday.

 

Twitter has entered a 'war like' mood with Trump after putting a fact check on Trump's tweet  which made Trump accuse the social media company of bias towards conservative voices or opinions.

 

Trump responded with an executive order that seeks to narrow social media companies’ protection from liability over the content posted on their platforms.
