Trump says he won't rejoin Twitter if Elon Musk reinstates his account

Former President Donald Trump said he will not get back on Twitter, even if his account is reinstated by Elon Musk, who is set to acquire the company for $44 billion.

Trump told Fox News that he would instead maintain a presence on Truth Social, the social media platform launched earlier this year by a new media firm he founded, and expects to begin using the site over the next seven days. Truth Social is one of the brands under the Trump Media and Technology Group, though the platform's popularity has waned in the weeks after its February launch.
