World’s renowned entrepreneur and CEO of SpaceX Elon Musk has responded to a post on his social media platform X — formerly called Twitter — about ex-US President Donald Trump.
A user on X — which Elon Musk bought in October 2022 for $44 billion — wrote about the former president that “it’s time” for Trump to return to X.
While responding to the user’s post, the 52-year-old Musk replied Wednesday: “Yes.”
The comments come just a day after the Washington Post reported that the four-time indicted Trump offered the CEO of SpaceX to buy his social media platform Truth Social last summer but the deal was not closed.
The latest report regarding the exchanges of both businessmen revealed that they have been communicating more than was earlier known.
Trump was prohibited from the social media platform after the January 6, 2021 riots in which his supporters stormed Capitol Hill on the false allegations of election rigging.
The San Francisco-based microblogging site reversed its decision to reinstate the 77-year-old’s account in November 2022, under Musk’s leadership, however, Trump did not release any posts until his fourth indictment in August last year.
The businessman-turned-politician uploaded his mugshot and wrote in the caption: “Election Interference, Never Surrender!”
