Quote:Elon Musk, the new owner of Twitter, said Friday the social media platform made a “grave mistake” when it banned former President Donald Trump in early 2021, noting that it broke trust with half the country.
Musk made his comment in reply to author and comedian Tim Young, who said “the left can’t handle” Trump’s Twitter account being reinstated by Musk, even though the former president hasn’t posted anything.
“It’s been a week since @elonmusk brought Trump back … and without him even tweeting once … The left can’t handle it,” Young wrote.
“I’m fine with Trump not tweeting,” Musk replied. “The important thing is that Twitter correct a grave mistake in banning his account, despite no violation of the law or terms of service.”
He added: “Deplatforming a sitting President undermined public trust in Twitter for half of America.”

The world’s richest man, who also runs SpaceX and Telsa, noted that freedom of speech was more important than which way he votes.
Musk has made clear that he views Twitter as a digital town square for the world.

After Musk reinstated Trump’s Twitter account, the former president’s tweets from Jan. 6, 2021, began circulating. Conservative pundits reposted Trump’s Twitter messages from the event as evidence that he had called for his supporters to “stay peaceful” when they went to the U.S. Capitol.
Does Musk care about democracy or freedom?
Or does he have some ulterior motives we should learn about first before trusting in Twitter?
