Let him run. Maybe enough of the cult will still follow him to split the GOP vote and help a blue win. If nothing else, watching him and DeSantis lay into each other for the next two years could be pretty fun.
Birds of a feather flock together.

Elon Musk allows Donald Trump back on Twitter
Twitter has become the first mainstream social media platform to reinstate the former president, who was banned from many sites after his supporters breached the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

I was kind of expecting that response. It'd be like if Musk had gotten banned from Facebook, and Zuckerberg offered to unban him right now. He's got too much ego wrapped up in his current posting place.
ALso I doubt Musk was doing it for any reason other than to try and counter-troll all the people who have been riffing on him for his horrible decisions the past couple weeks.

I predicted that. I do love the head fake BS "poll" that Musk threw out as to whether or not Trump should be allowed back. Nothing says "free speech absolutionist" like begging the crowd for validation for a decision you've already made.
But, Trump probably has a few contracts in place where he can't jump back yet. Give it a few more months till his network is in the dumpster. Of course, by then Twitter will most likely be gone or crippled horribly as well.

The only reason Musk really wants Trump back is because he wants the cult to follow the orange cancer and bring more traffic back to Twitter.
While he's also busy alienating and firing most of the people who actually keep it running.
Yeah, this is gonna go great.

He'll happily go back to twitter because the audience is bigger. And musk is a total fanboy who's gutted the oversight. The next time trump is off twitter is because twitter is offline.
Yeah, it's not like he's actually been unable to post his every idiotic thought for all to see. Only the platform changed, and I'm going to go out on a limb and speculate that the press monitors his Truth Social account 24/7.
Supreme Court has blocked Trump's request to keep his tax returns from the Jan 6 committee:
Trump's Tax Returns is feeling like our version of Hunter's Laptop and Hillary's Emails at this point.
That's a good comparison. At this point no one knows what exactly they're expecting to find there, or why it would matter, and no one seems to have a problem with that. Though if anything it's actually shot past it to being even stupider than the Hillary and Hunter witch hunts because they're potentially a distraction from the very real, very obvious, and very-obviously-not-being-prosecuted crimes that Trump has actually done. Meanwhile, I'm convinced that the Republicans know perfectly well their witch hunts won't turn anything up, and are just using them as perpetual reminders that maybe some famous Democrats have done Bad Things and we'll probably never know what but it's a good enough reason to never trust anyone from that party to be in charge of anything ever.
The difference being: there's actually criminal evidence in trumps tax returns.
And I'm sure it'll be just as relevant as every other piece of criminal evidence against him. What state is he campaigning in this week?
They're probably immaterial to all the other jive he's done, but it can't hurt to have them. I just hope the January 6 committee works fast.
