Phony Stark aka Elon Musk To Reinstate Donald Trump On Twitter, White Power Twitter Praises Lord Cheeto’s Return
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: OLIVIER DOULIERY / Getty The moment most everyone, with common sense, feared has arrived. Billionaire troll Elon Musk said on Saturday (Nov. 19) that he would be reinstating Donald Trump to the platform. The decision is only the latest, eyebrow-raising move from Musk, who purchased Twitter in October for $44 billion after trying for months not to purchase the social media app. Since his purchase, Musk has fired thousands of employees and has inspired thousands of resignations—all while throwing cold water on the theory that billionaires must be sound business people.

Elon Musk Restores Donald Trump’s Twitter Account After Online Poll
Elon Musk reinstated Donald Trump’s account on Twitter on Saturday (Nov. 19), reversing a ban that has kept the former president off the social media site since a pro-Trump mob attacked the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, as Congress was poised to certify Joe Biden’s election victory.
