In May, Musk said he would reverse Trump’s ban if he took control of the social media site.

Speaking at the time, he said: “Permanent bans should be extremely rare and really reserved for accounts that are bots or spam, scam accounts. I do think it was not correct to ban Donald Trump.”

At the time of his ban, Mr Trump had more than 80 million followers on the platform.
