Elon Musk shades criticism of Trump's Twitter comeback

Twitter's new owner and CEO, Elon Musk, sarcastically shaded people who continually asked him if former US President Donald Trump would make a comeback on Twitter.

Musk, who took over Twitter three days ago and fired most of its top executives, said in a tweet late Monday, "If I had a dollar every time someone asks me if Trump is coming back on this platform, Twitter would mint money.”

Since the takeover by Musk, many tweeps and media outlets have anticipated and projected the former US president's return to the platform.

Trump, whose account was permanently suspended from the platform in January 2021, has been accused of inciting violence through his tweets following the Capitol Hill riots and has been called a "risk".

Twitter Incorporated wrote in a statement at the time: "After a thorough review of recent tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context surrounding them, particularly how they are received and interpreted on and off Twitter, we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement to violence."

Following Musk's takeover of the social media platform, Trump wrote on his own social media platform "Truth Social": "I'm very happy that Twitter is now in good hands and no longer be run by radical left crazies and maniacs who really hate our country."

Elon Musk, in a tweet on Friday, said he would introduce a 'council' that would decide whether people who were banned from the platform would be allowed to return, which consequently sparked reactions on the platform from social media. .
