A senior Twitter official announced: Trump was removed forever

According to CNN, “Ned Segal”, Twitter’s chief financial officer, noted yesterday that former US President Donald Trump will not be allowed to return to Twitter, even if he wins the 2024 presidential election again. .

“Our policy has been that if Trump goes to the polls or runs for president again,” the Twitter official said in an interview with CNBC. When someone is removed from this network, he is removed altogether, whether he is a commentator or the head of an institution or a current or former official.

Ned Segal added: “Keep in mind that our policy has been to ensure that people do not incite violence, and if anyone does, we should remove them from the network.

The senior Twitter official made the remarks as the second day of Donald Trump’s trial for “inciting riots” in the US Senate began at noon yesterday.

On the second day of the trial, prosecutors in Trump’s trial in the US Senate read out the indictment, arguing that the December 6 attack by “domestic terrorists” on the Congress building was carried out with Trump’s knowledge and prior planning.

Trump is accused in this case of “inciting a riot” on January 6, after calling for a rally of his supporters, asking them to go to Congress and make their voices heard about electoral fraud.

The US Congress at the time was counting the votes and confirming the victory of US President Joe Biden. Five people were killed in an attack by Trump supporters, which current US officials refer to as domestic terrorism.

Although Republicans have blamed Trump for the incident, given that they need 17 votes in the Senate to convict him, it is unlikely that a number of Republicans will vote in favor of accusing Trump for partisanship.

Trump is the only president in American history to have been impeached twice in the House of Representatives in four years.
