Facebook has reportedly pulled an ad for President Trump’s reelection campaign after it violated the platform’s advertising policies.
Popular Info reported Monday that Facebook pulled the Trump ad because it violated a policy that prohibits ads targeting "personal attributes."
The ad in question featured a crowd of women with the caption, “The Women for Trump Coalition needs the support of strong women like you!”
Facebook’s ad policy prohibits “content that asserts or implies personal attributes,” including, among other things, "direct or indirect assertions or implications about a person’s ... gender identity."
Facebook reportedly pulled the ad following an inquiry from Popular Info.
“We've notified the campaign that the ads violate policy. They cannot continue to run unless fixed," a Facebook spokesperson told The Hill in a statement.
The Hill has reached out to the Trump campaign for comment.

So you can’t refer to gender anymore because you might offend a transmission?
Lame attempt at censorship.
Trump will get more free advertising from this than the silly ad.
I wonder if Facebook allowed planned parenthood ads that referenced women’s attributes?
Insanity. Pure insanity.
Alright guys.
This is bad.
But Trump is a smart guy.
They might just get broken up.
Are they nuts?? Nevermind
So, I presume all of those Hillary ads crowing about the potential “first female President!” would have been banned, too...
This is absurd, even for these leftist pukes. They need to have their plug pulled.
Maybe it had been posted but I just saw ut here
Thanks for posting.
I would not have seen ut.
This crap by these tech giants has to be stopped
What does that even mean??? Are these the ‘pronoun’ police at work?
Blacks for Bernie
LGBTQ for Pete
Latinos for Beto......etc.....
I know this is the new law for media in Britain, but I didn’t realize American Social Media was also adopting it.
My conclusion? It’s stupid and unnatural.
Men & Women are different in many ways. You know it, we all do.
Viva la difference!
The feds need to bust down some doors and start giving out perp walks for this behavior. Do it once and the police issue a warning. Do it again and Zuckerberg’s compound gets raided with armored bulldozers flying American flags. It’s in the Constitution. Where are the jackbooted thugs when you need them?
SO WHAT!
More posts mean more readers!
I just saw the ad on FB 5 minutes ago. Still “women” .
Insane.
But, hold on, you damn sure bet they’d PROMOTE anything with “black” - excuse me, “African-American” - in it!
