Elon Musk on unbanning Donald Trump’s X handle:
In 2022, Musk reinstated Trump’s banned X account by running a poll after he acquired the platform. "The people have spoken," Musk shared back in 2022, citing that 51.8% of more than 15 million X users wanted the ban lifted.
The former US president’s X handle was banned after his supporters stormed the US Capitol in Washington DC, and the then-management decided that his posts about the incident glorified violence.
What did social media say?
Expectedly, the post prompted varied comments from social media users. An individual posted, “Would have been cool.” Another added, “Two legends saving America.”
A third said, “You need to do it for real on January 20th,” referring to Inauguration Day. Every four years, on January 20 (or January 21 if January 20 is a Sunday), the inauguration ceremony takes place at the US Capitol building. The next presidential inauguration is scheduled for January 20, 2025.
