Is Trump on Twitter again?

[–] Cheradenine@sh.itjust.works 77 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Yes, elon reversed his permanent ban

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 76 points 2 months ago (3 children)

And also Trump promised he'd never use Twitter again. So obviously he's back on, despite the great success of his own platform

The $45 million a month Elon is giving his superPAC helps

[–] TheRaven@lemmy.ca 18 points 2 months ago

*promised to give. Anyone following self-driving cars over the last decade knows Elon’s promises are worth nothing.

Did he not back out of that less than a month after he announced it

[–] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I hadn't read that but I wouldn't be surprised.

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He's not using Twitter, he's using X

Hope that clears it up 🤗

Oh God, that emoji made me think of his accordion hand gestures. Was that the intention? It's ruined forever

Oh god I see it too! Not intended, I just use that emoji when I'm being silly

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Trump has never kept a promise in his life. His words are literally meaningless. The fact that anyone follows him is preposterous. Yet, here we are.

[–] MotoAsh@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago (2 children)

He did that months ago. Trump just had a noncompete with Truth Social that ran out which restricted him from posting anywhere else.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Lol, he doesn't even own his own network, yet people think he's a master businessman?

[–] Cheradenine@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

The ban was reversed months ago, that's correct. Trump just recently started posting though. Iirc his deal with truth social was that he could post to other platforms, but he needed to wait 6 hours after posting on trutg before doing so.

[–] WhatYouNeed@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

He's waiting for the 6 month mandatory period to expire, when he will dump ihs DJT stock and make an absolute killing. Maybe finally become an actual billionaire.

Then he will be back on shitter full time. Payoff for fElon will be more users on his site, while Truth Social folds.
