INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Elon Musk reinstated Donald Trump&s account on Twitter on Saturday, reversing a ban that has kept the former president off the social media
site since a pro-Trump mob attacked the US Capitol on Jan
6, 2021, as Congress was poised to certify Joe Biden&s election victory.Musk made the announcement on Saturday evening after holding a poll
that asked Twitter users to click &yes& or &no& on whether Trump&s account should be restored
The &yes& vote won, with 51.8%.Previously, Musk had said Twitter would establish new procedures and a &content moderation council& before
making decisions to restore suspended accounts.&The people have spoken
Vox Populi, Vox Dei,& Musk tweeted, using a Latin phrase meaning &the voice of the people, the voice of God.&Shortly afterward Trump&s
account, which had earlier appeared as suspended, reappeared on the platform complete with his former tweets, more than 59,000 of them
His followers were gone, at least initially, but he quickly began regaining them
There were no new tweets from the account as of late Saturday, however, Associated Press reported.It is not clear whether Trump would
actually return to Twitter but has said in the past that he would not rejoin even if his account was reinstated
He has been relying on his own, much smaller social media site, Truth Social, which he launched after being blocked from Twitter.The post
