Tesla CEO Elon Musk said that he would reverse Trump’s suspension from Twitter during a conference with the US media Financial Times on May 10.
Musk described the ban as “morally wrong” and “a mistake,” because it alienated a large part of the country and did not ultimately result in Donald Trump not having a voice.
“If there are tweets that are wrong, they should be either deleted or made invisible – a temporary suspension is appropriate, but not a permanent ban,” he added.
More recently, Musk and Twitter struck a deal after weeks of negotiations, announcing parties reached an agreement on Musk’s acquisition of the social network last Monday, for the sum of USD 44 billion.
Former US President Donald Trump was ousted from Twitter, Facebook, and Youtube, as a result of the assault on the Capitol by his supporters back on January 6, 2021.
Right after announcing Joe Biden’s victory in the US presidential election, Trump rejected the results, posting tweets that he won the election more than a week after it was declared for Biden.
Twitter banned Trump, after he fought to overturn the results of the election.
Last October, Trump launched his media company Trump Media & Technology Group and Digital World Acquisition Group (TMTG) with a new social media platform called “TRUTH Social.”
