Elon Musk calls the Twitter ban on Trump following the Capitol attack a “grave mistake”

Elon Musk @elonmusk said on Friday that Twitter’s decision to ban then-President Donald Trump following his supporters’ attack on the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, was a “grave mistake” that needed to be fixed. #US #Politics Musk said in a tweet, “I’m fine with Trump not tweeting.

The important thing is that Twitter correct a grave mistake in banning his account, despite no violation of the law or terms of service.” He added, “Deplatforming a sitting President undermined public trust in Twitter for half of America.”

Musk reactivated Trump’s account last week after a slim majority voted in a Twitter poll in favor of reinstating Trump, who stated that he had no interest in returning to Twitter.

He also stated that he would continue to use his own social media site, Truth Social, the app developed by Trump Media & Technology Group.
