Billionaire Elon Musk has clarified that though he wants Twitter to lift its permanent ban on former President Donald Trump, he does not support Trump’s 2024 presidential bid.
Musk, the world’s richest person and CEO of Tesla, is attempting to close a deal to acquire Twitter.
Musk told a Financial Times conference on Tuesday that Twitter’s decision to ban Trump was “morally bad.”
He followed up on those remarks in a tweet on Thursday evening, stressing he does not back Trump as a presidential candidate.
“Even though I think a less divisive candidate would be better in 2024, I still think Trump should be restored to Twitter,” he said.
Trump has said he does not want to return to Twitter, but instead wants to build up his own Truth Social platform.
He was banned from Twitter permanently in January 2021 because of the “risk of further incitement of violence” following the storming of the U.S. Capitol, the company said then.
Trump is considering another run for the presidency in 2024 after losing his re-election bid in 2020.
