(Crankers) If you haven’t heard by now, Elon Musk bought almost 10% stake in Twitter, and now members of the micro-blogging platform are calling for Musk to help get Donald Trump’s Twitter account reinstated.
Musk is also suggesting new improvements, like the ‘edit’ button that just about everyone on the planet would like to have.

Now that @ElonMusk is Twitter’s largest shareholder, it’s time to lift the political censorship.
Oh… and BRING BACK TRUMP!

As previously reported about Elon Musk buying stakes in Twitter: “Elon Musk, the Tesla CEO, made a major investment in Twitter, making it the social networking company’s largest outside investor, not long after criticizing it for failing to uphold free speech’s basics. The whole thing had at least one GOP Rep. immediately demanding the return of Donald Trump to the platform.
Musk holds 73,486,938 shares of Twitter, per a Special provision 13G report issued on Monday, reflecting a 9.2 % inactive ownership stake. The investment is valued at $2.89 trillion dollars predicated on Twitter’s closing price last Friday, per report.
The acquisition comes less than two weeks after Musk attacked the firm on Twitter, asking followers if it follows free speech ideals. Musk said on Twitter: “Given that Twitter serves as the de facto public town square, failing to adhere to free speech principles fundamentally undermines democracy. What should be done?”
