Coming soon to a social feed near you: The Return of the Great MAGA King!
That's right, after a two-year forced hiatus, the former President of the United States and King of Twitter, Donald J. Trump, is about to return to the platform in preparation for his next presidential bid.
Trump's allies know that without Twitter and Facebook, the campaign's chances are seriously hindered.
"Trump is probably coming back to Twitter. It's just a question of how and when," said a Republican who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations with Trump about returning to the platform. "He's been talking about it for weeks, but Trump speaks for Trump, so it's anyone's guess what he'll do or say or when."
Another Trump confidant who also didn't want to be identified speaking about conversations with him said that Trump has sought input for weeks about hopping back on Twitter and that his campaign advisers have also workshopped ideas for his first tweet.
There has been no more anticipated Tweet in history than the one Donald Trump is going to make to announce his return to the Twitter platform.
You can tell he's being very careful (for now).
Another Trump adviser, who has spoken with him about Facebook and shared the gist of the private conversation with NBC News on condition of anonymity, said that his campaign believes Facebook will ultimately honor the two-year ban and reinstate him but that it's prepared to engage with House Republicans who control the lower chamber of Congress to advocate on Trump's behalf and pressure Meta. The adviser said Congress is likely to examine Section 230 of the federal law affecting social media companies.
