On Friday, former US president Donald Trump praised the sale of Twitter to internet billionaire Elon Musk, but he made no promises to return.After months of ambiguity and rumour, Musk, the richest man in the world, saw the conclusion of his $44 billion offer to purchase the firm late Thursday.
On his own Truth Social site, Trump said, “I am extremely delighted that Twitter is now in sensible hands, and will no longer be ruled by Radical Left Lunatics and Maniacs that sincerely detest our country.”Trump established a Twitter ban after the 2021 attack on the US Capitol, which the Republican leader is suspected of instigating. Musk has said he might lift the ban.
But in a later interview with Fox News Digital, Trump declined to indicate whether he intended to return from his Twitter exile and remained mum on the subject.I don’t think Twitter can be successful without me, Trump added as he wished Musk luck and expressed his admiration for him to the cable network.Most experts predict that the 76-year-old real estate tycoon will succumb to the appeal of reclaiming the enormous online platform where he once had more than 80 million followers.
