Former President Donald Trump will be allowed back on YouTube after a more than two-year ban, the platform told The Post Friday.

The video streaming service owned by Google suspended Trump’s account on Jan. 12, 2021, in the aftermath of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

YouTube public policy VP Leslie Miller said that beginning Friday, Trump can return to his channel with more than 2.5 million followers and “is no longer restricted and the ability to upload new content is restored.”
