Calm down tweeple! Trump’s not back on Twitter yet
The tweet has garnered over three lakh likes and around 55k retweets with the comment section flooded with all sorts of reactions.
Hyderabad: Hours after news of Elon Musk’s Twitter takeover dominated the headlines on Friday, a tweet from the ‘official’ Twitter profile of Donald J Trump has sparked much chatter online, with many people believing that the former US President was back on the micro-blogging site.
However, a closer glance at the tweet would reveal that the handle was not made from the account of Trump. Instead, it was shared from an already verified profile of a netizen who changed their username to Donald J-Trump.

I think it’s some other verified account and they pranked everyone by tweeting this and changing their account to look like the @realDonaldTrump account.

For the unversed, Donald Trump’s Twitter account was permanently suspended in January 2021 following the attempted insurrection by his supporters at the US Capitol. He was accused of ‘misusing’ the microblogging site, and instantly lost connection with nearly 89 million followers. Trump’s Twitter handle @realDonaldTrump still remains suspended to date.
