LOS ANGELES: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said he “struggled” with how to respond to US President Donald Trump’s posts – on both Facebook and Instagram – suggesting the government would fire upon rioting crowds.

Ultimately, while Trump’s posts included a “troubling historical reference” and Zuckerberg said he “disagree[s] strongly with how the President spoke about this”, Facebook decided to not remove them.
