Elon Musk polled Twitter users for 24 hours on whether it was worth “bringing back former President Trump.”
Former US President Donald Trump’s Twitter account, which was blocked in 2021, has been restored. About this Saturday, November 19, know Social media owner Elon Musk.
Musk explained that he allowed former US President Donald Trump to return to the social network after the majority of participants in a survey he made the day before spoke for it.
“The people have spoken. Trump will be brought back. Vox Populi, Vox Dei (voice of the people – voice of God),” Musk tweeted.
Almost immediately after that, Trump’s social network profile became active again, and the number of subscribers in less than an hour grew from just over 500 thousand to more than 2 million.
Earlier, Musk’s Twitter account ended the vote to unblock Trump’s account, with 52% of participants in favor of it.
Note that Trump was banned from Twitter after the attack on the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, when Trump lost the election to Joe Biden. In particular, Twitter management fears that Trump’s tweets could lead to more violence.
Musk said blocking the former president was wrong, and he was ready to restore his account. However, Trump said in April that he would not return to the platform even if Musk lifted the lockdown.
