Donald Trump reacts after Elon Musk reinstates his Twitter account, ending lifetime ban

Donald Trump has been officially reinstated to Twitter but on Saturday afternoon the former president cast doubt that he would return to the platform.

Trump posted on Truth Social, a social media service he has used since receiving a lifetime ban on Twitter in January 2021, that he would not be switching back over.

"Vote now with positivity, but don’t worry, we aren’t going anywhere. Truth Social is special!" he posted. Twitter CEO Elon Musk formally reinstated Trump this weekend after conducting a poll on the platform that received more than 15 million votes.
