on the Website on the pages belonging to President Trump and Vice-President Mike Pence , were online for about 24 hours and had received hundreds of thousands of views, before they were dismantled.

"The inverted red triangle is a symbol of Antifa, so it was in a display about Antifa," Tim Murtaugh, a spokesman for The Trump campaign, said in a statement.

"We would note that Facebook is still an inverted red triangle emoji in use, which looks exactly the same," he added.

Mr Trump has recently Antifa start riots in the street, accused of protests in the US over the death in police custody from African American George Floyd.

The President said last month that he would appoint the anti-fascist group to do a "domestic terrorist organization", even though the experts have questioned his authority to.

Antifa is a protest movement against neo-Nazis, fascism, white supremacists and racism. It is as a loosely organized group of activists without a guide.

Most of the members turn against all forms of racism and sexism, and reject what they see as The Nationalist , anti-immigration and anti-Muslim policy, which Mr Trump has been adopted.
