Trump’s X account has been suspended by Twitter after the January 6 riots at the US Capitol back in 2021. Now, his X account has been reinstated by Musk, following his takeover of the platform.
Musk has embraced conservative politics for a while now, especially regarding issues about free speech. Musk bought Twitter back in 2022 and rebranded it to X.
Following Trump’s assassination attempt that took place in July, Musk has been publicly showing support for him.
The US Presidential Candidate has been injured during a shooting at a Pennsylvania rally this Saturday, July 13.
He was shot in the ear during the attack, but shortly after, his campaign said that he was doing well.
On X, Musk shared a photo depicting Trump right after the attack when he told people to fight. In another post, he said that the legacy media is a pure propaganda machine, while X is the source of truth and the voice of the people.
