Trump’s account will likely not be returned, according to Musk, who also claimed that Twitter has reinstated other controversial accounts that had been terminated or banned, including the satirical website Babylon Bee and comic Kathy Griffin. The firm is undergoing a significant restructuring that includes significant layoffs, and as part of it, Musk has decided to ask Twitter users for advice on who should be on the network.

It’s interesting to note that 59% of respondents have so far said they support restoring former President Trump’s account. It should be remembered that Musk launched the poll on November 19 at 6:17 AM. His poll has received more than 121k likes and 50k retweets so far.
