Trump Responds to Question on If He Will Rejoin Twitter

Contact Your Elected Officials

Hours before Twitter owner Elon Musk reinstated former President Donald Trump’s account nearly two years after it was suspended, Trump suggested Saturday that he has no interest in rejoining—even as his account had more than 80 million followers as of Sunday morning.

“I don’t see any reason for it,” the former president said via video when asked whether he planned to return to Twitter on Saturday, according to the Reuters news agency. Previously, Trump stated that he would not return to Twitter and praised his Truth Social.

Trump told a crowd Saturday that he would stick with his new platform Truth Social, the app developed by his Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) startup, which he claimed had better user engagement than Twitter and was doing “phenomenally well.” The Epoch Times has contacted Trump’s team for comment.

As of Sunday morning, the former president had not made any new Twitter posts. The last post on his account was dated Jan. 8, 2021.

For the past 22 months, upon trying to access the 45th president’s page, it would return a message saying the account was suspended. Starting Saturday evening, users began re-tweeting some of Trump’s posts, including ones from about a decade ago criticizing Cher, Rosie O’Donnell, and “the Coca-Cola company.”

Trump’s last Twitter posts revolved around him asking Jan. 6 protesters to remain peaceful, his final one—dated Jan. 8, 2021—was a statement that he would not attend Joe Biden’s presidential inauguration. Others pertained to claims of voter fraud during the 2020 election.

“I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence!” he wrote on Jan. 6. “Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order—respect the Law and our great men and women in Blue. Thank you!”
