I don't know about WhatsApp (but I also didn't mention WhatsApp), but go to FB Messenger right now, open up a conversation with yourself, and try to send a message containing the string "thedonald.win". You'll get an error message saying "Couldn't send", with no further explanation. The list of banned strings used to be longer, but they've unbanned a lot of them since the election ended.
To be clear, this is in private conversations. Not just posting publicly on Facebook or w/e.

Just tried with and without quotes and it sent fine. This was on Messenger version 445.0.0.41.109 on Android 14.
Could be regional. Are you in the US?
