Trump Unlikely To Have Twitter Back For Midterms
It looks unlikely that Donald Trump is going to have his Twitter account back before the midterms in six days.
Eko Hot Blog reports that the new Twitter owner, Elon Musk says that it will be “a few more weeks” before any banned accounts are restored.

Many have been waiting to see if Musk reinstates Trump, who had his account “permanently suspended” in wake of the attack on the US Capitol in January 2021.
“Twitter will not allow anyone who was de-platformed for violating Twitter rules back on platform until we have a clear process for doing so, which will take at least a few more weeks,” Musk tweeted.
The midterm elections take place on Tuesday.
Since Musk took over Twitter, Trump has suggested he would be happier sticking with his own Truth Social messaging platform.
But while Trump has a healthy 4.4M followers on Truth Social, it’s dwarfed by the 88.7M he had on Twitter, and many think he would struggle to resist returning.
Trump isn’t on the ballot for the midterms, but he’s backing many Republican candidates.
