LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Twitter banned former US President Donald Trump in January 2021 as a result of his extreme and offensive tweets at the time. Since Elon Musk took control of Twitter, rumors have started to circulate over whether or not Trump's account will be restored by Musk-led Twitter. So, to solve this query, Musk had earlier launched a poll asking Twitter users whether or not to reactivate former President Trump's account. Surprisingly, around 60% of respondents have indicated that they support restoring former President Trump's account. 

Musk used the well-known Latin proverb "Vox Populi, Vox Dei," which literally translates as 'the voice of the people is the voice of the god', to explain the purpose behind the poll. Earlier, Trump's Twitter account was permanently suspended by Twitter following his provocative and extremist tweets. He called the people who stormed the Capitol "patriots," while fomenting unrest over the election results. Twitter's management at the time responded with a statement saying that Trump’s tweets were "in violation of the Glorification of Violence Policy". Later, the former president launched his own social media platform, Truth Social, and it has since become his preferred destination when he wants to communicate with his followers.
