I really think this was a ploy by Musk to identify bot accounts for investigation and deletion. He knew this was a sure way to get most or all of them to show up in one tweet thread. Pretty smart, actually. Baited them with something they couldn’t resist.

I was hoping that was what the poll was... I thought perhaps Musk was testing a new algorithm to trap bots. He did comment on the strange nature of the results a few times... that is, how Trump started at 58% and slowly was whittled down from there.. when you get up over the 12 million range though, no number of bots could move the needle much....

Oh how I wish this or something like it would be made into a poll question. :D

I confirmed that this is a legitimate Tweet. Elon Musk will reinstate the @realdonaldtrump account on Twitter as a result of this poll.

I have not re-activated my personal account but I am signed in with my work account, which I only use for work purposes and not for politics or anything else.

Once I verify that President Trump's account is active again, I will attempt to re-activate my personal account there once again, which I de-activated in the wake of the irresponsible decision by Twitter to ban our President from the platform. Otherwise, I'll create a new personal account.

It still disturbs me that the vote to reinstate was as close as it was (53-47%) but I think there were a lot of bots involved as well. In fact, I would not be surprised if the purpose of Elon creating this poll was to flush these bots out.

And so it is done!

I just became the 97th follower of @realdonaldtrump

Apparently Elon set his followers back to zero. Will be interesting to see how this grows.

I know Trump says he will not use the account but maybe he can mirror his Truth posts there.

wheels within wheels.

Maybe that and it did add a lot of activity he can legitimately use for advertising purposes.

Under the old mgt, this would not have happened. it is bringing people back. smart move.

The freedom of speech in the 1st Amendment to the constitution says that, there shouldn’t even be a poll to decide whether someone should be free to express his opinions.

1A only applies to government action. Since Twitter is a private entity it's free to censor whatever speech it wants. I'm not saying that it should, only that it can.

>> There should not be any existing platform within the U.S. that forbids free speech.

So you’re in favor of forcing JimRob to allow leftist filth free reign on Free Republic, with zero suppression?

I don’t think you’ve thought this through, my FRiend.
