Twitter applied a warning label early Friday on President Donald Trump s latest tweet about the death of George Floyd, which it said violated rules against glorifying violence.

Trump called people protesting the death of Floyd , who died in Minneapolis on Monday after a police officer knelt on his neck, THUGS and threatened to send troops. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts, tweeted the president.

Protests have erupted nationwide over Floyds death with demonstrators in Minneapolis setting buildings on fire and warring with police.

Twitters label, below, said the platform had determined that it may be in the publics interest for the Tweet to remain accessible.
