<p>Elon Musk said Tuesday that he will reverse Twitter&#8217;s permanent ban on former President Donald Trump.</p>
<p>Musk, who purchased Twitter last month for $44 billion, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfyrQVhfGZc">said</a> at FT Live’s Future of the Car conference that it was “not correct to ban Donald Trump.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I think that was a mistake because it alienated a large part of the county, and did not ultimately result in Donald Trump not having a voice,” Musk said, adding that the decision was “morally bad.”</p>
<p>&#8220;That doesn&#8217;t mean that someone gets to say whatever they want to say,&#8221; Musk said. &#8220;If they say something that is illegal or destructive to the world, then there should be perhaps a timeout, temporary suspension or that particular tweet should be made invisible or have very little traction.&#8221;</p>
<p>“I would reverse the permanent ban,” Musk added.</p>
<p>Once Musk&#8217;s purchase of Twitter is finalized he is expected to serve as the company&#8217;s CEO for a period of time.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">.<a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@elonmusk</a> says he would reverse President Trump&#39;s permanent ban on Twitter if the deal finalizes <a href="https://t.co/QZfwREYAAZ">pic.twitter.com/QZfwREYAAZ</a></p>
<p>&mdash; Daily Wire (@realDailyWire) <a href="https://twitter.com/realDailyWire/status/1524084373976461312?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 10, 2022</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Musk indicated that action could be taken against an account if there were tweets that violated platform policy, which he said, &#8220;should be either deleted or made invisible, and a suspension—a temporary suspension—is appropriate, but not a permanent ban.&#8221;</p>
<p>Musk said that permanent bans &#8220;should be extremely rare and really reserved for accounts that are bots, or scam, spam accounts.&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump stated last month that he won&#8217;t be going back on Twitter because of how he was treated by the platform and because he <a href="https://news.yahoo.com/trump-snubbed-twitter-boring-place-050606314.html">says</a> that platform was &#8220;boring.&#8221;</p>
<p>“No, I won’t be going back on Twitter,” Trump said. “I like Elon Musk. I like him a lot. He’s an excellent individual. We did a lot for Twitter when I was in the White House. I was disappointed by the way I was treated by Twitter. I won’t be going back on Twitter.”</p>
