A message reportedly from the former president saying he was told his Twitter account „will be back up and running“ in days has spread on social media.
Following Elon Musk’s $44 billion takeover of Twitter, the question remains whether the SpaceX and Tesla CEO will follow up on his previous promise to allow Donald Trump back on the platform.
The world’s richest man has been engaged in a back and forth with Twitter for several months about the takeover before the deal went through on Thursday.
The Claim
Soon after Musk’s takeover was complete, a statement purporting to be sent via Trump’s Save America Super PAC began circulating on social media.
The screenshoted message (archived here), which claimed to be an official statement from Trump, was congratulating Musk for his takeover on Twitter, while suggesting that the former president may be returning to the platform in the coming days.
„Congratulations to Elon Musk on his purchase of Twitter. Many people are saying that change was needed, as the old management was too concerned with the woke agenda,“ the statement reads.
