the billionaire Elon Musk assured that if the agreement to buy Twitter goes ahead, he will lift the veto in the social network to former US President Donald Trumpwhose account has been closed since the assault on the Capitol by thousands of his followers in 2021.

I think it was a mistake because it marginalized much of the country and ultimately didn’t result in Donald Trump having no voice.
The CEO of Tesla described the closure of Trump’s account as a mistake, saying that it has alienated a large part of the United States and that, in addition, it did not prevent the former president (2017-2021) from continuing to communicate with his followers.
He also said that it was a decision “morally wrong” and that while you agree to the removal of specific messages on Twitter that violate its rules of use and the temporary suspension of repeat users, He does not believe that permanent bans on people should exist on the social network.
“Permanent bans should be extremely rare and reserved for accounts run by bots or engaging in aggressive advertising. I think Donald Trump’s was not the right kind of veto“said the tycoon.
