The 45th president of the United States, Donald Trump, has given his opinion on what the future holds for billionaire Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter.
During a rally on Saturday in Austin, he made the remarks, during which he also said that his Truth Social program “blows Twitter away” and that “everyone likes it — particularly the interaction.”
The former president expressed his skepticism on Musk’s plans to acquire Twitter, stating, “I don’t think he’s going to purchase Twitter because you have so many bogus accounts, the bots, and all of the various stuff.” “I believe that it will end up being rather intriguing.”

This week, Musk provided an explanation for his actions after a tweet in which he said that his agreement to acquire Twitter was “on pause.”
In reaction to a news item that demonstrated Twitter’s assertion that spam and bot accounts make up fewer than 5 percent of its users, Musk sent out a tweet early on Friday morning saying the transaction was “on pause.”
“Twitter contract put on hold temporarily for data supporting computation that spam/fake accounts do actually constitute fewer than 5 percent of users,” he stated. “Twitter has a lot of real users.”
