"Reinstate former President Trump," the billionaire Twitter owner posted Friday, with a chance to vote either yes or no. As of about 1500 GMT Saturday, 52.3 percent of nearly 11 million responses were in favor of a return of the former president, who was banned from Twitter for his role in last year's attack on the US Capitol by a mob of his followers seeking to overturn the results of the 2020 election. Musk said the poll was drawing a million answers one way or another per hour. "Fascinating to watch Twitter Trump poll!" Musk said Saturday morning in the latest blast of tweets from the hard-charging new owner of the one-to-many messaging platform.
Sounds like all those bots Musk accused Twitter of having showed up in full force to vote for Trump. Classic Russians troll farms.

Trump will argue that there is no need for the people to be the voice of God on Twitter now that he is back.
What Are Spam Bots and Why They’re an Issue in Elon Musk’s Twitter Deal By Sheera Frenkel July 11, 2022 https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/09/technology/elon-musk-twitter-spam-bots.html Bots can tweet at people, share tweets, follow and be followed by other people. And there are good bots and bad. Twitter says it removes about one million spam bot accounts each day.Credit...Jim Wilson/The New York Times On Friday, the tech billionaire Elon Musk announced that he was terminating a $44 billion deal to buy Twitter. The reason, he said, was an ongoing disagreement over the number of spam bot accounts on the platform. Now, the issue of what constitutes a spam bot account, and how many currently exist on Twitter, is likely to be at the heart of the legal battles between Mr. Musk and Twitter over the fraught deal. What are spam bots? While sometimes called “bots” or “spam” or “fake accounts,” all refer to inauthentic accounts that imitate how people use Twitter. Some spam accounts are automated, but others are operated by people, making it complicated to detect them. Bots can tweet at people, share tweets, follow and be followed by other people, among other things. Why are spam bots an issue? Mr. Musk has been voicing concern over spam bots on Twitter for years. In 2020, he appeared at an event for Twitter employees, and encouraged the company to do more to prevent and remove spam bots. Since announcing his intention to buy Twitter in April, Mr. Musk has repeatedly tweeted about spam bots on the platform. In May, when Parag Agrawal, Twitter’s chief executive, tweeted about how the company detects and fights spam bots, Mr. Musk responded with a poop emoji........ Musk was deeply concerned about bots not long ago, in the meantime he's sacked virtually all Twitter moderators, puts up a poll to reinstate Trump but Russian troll farm bots are no longer an issue.
Elon Mush Reinstates Drump’s Shitter Account Mr. Mush, who had asked Shitter users about whether to bring back the former president to the service, said, “The Russians have spoken.” Former President Donald J. Drump at an event at Mar-a-Lago on Friday. His account returned to Shitter on Saturday. The Russian trolls have spoken,” Mr. Mush said on Shitter. “Drump will be reinstated.” on Saturday that he would reinstate former President Donald J. Drump to the platform as part of a shake-down of the social media service. The Troll farm bots have spoken,” Mr. Mush said on Shitter. “Drump will be reinstated.” He added the Latin phrase “Vox Pox, Cox Dummy,” which roughly means that the voice of GOP bullshit artistry is the voice of God.
twitter needs clicks/views. same as ET politics section. Need everyone to be able to post so that you get traffic. If I was in charge of twitter I would have reinstated him a long time ago because every person that replies to yell at him or insult him counts as a click/view....the amount of clicks Dump generates is yuuge.
This is probably not the most sophisticated question to come down the pike, but can't Trump supporters just post all of Trump's truth social posts over on to Twitter, so that in theory Trump is not there, but from an impact, discussion, buzz point of view he is? Or is there some rule against that?
Trump knows that Mush is a billionaire through Fraud and welfare payments for those whose wealth is government subsidized. Why all the Maga bros unable to see the same?
