Meta, the parent company of Instagram, Facebook and Whatsapp, lifted the ban on the 45th US President in January.
Former US President Donald Trump made his return to Instagram on Tuesday, the first time since the Capitol Hill attack on January 6, 2021. The attack on the Congress resulted in his suspension from major social media platforms, as per a report in The Guardian.
Mr Trump used the platform to sell a second edition of his digital trading cards. The project, which was heavily ridiculed when it was first launched in December 2022, sold out an edition of 44,000 in less than a day and made profits of $4.5 million.
It is also to be noted that Mr Trump has already benefited from fundraising this month as a result of his arrest in New York on 34 counts of falsifying business records, which are connected to his hush money payments to adult film star Stormy Daniels.
