The New York Times reported that Twitter temporarily disabled Mr. Trump's Twitter account on the day of the attack on the Capitol. However, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey wasn't sure if Trump's disposition to his Twitter account was appropriate, initially saying, 'Twitter is free to do things, even if it's a vicious leader. It should be a place where you can talk. '

Mr. Trump's Twitter account was restored from a temporary suspension in just one day and is now available. Twitter has been monitoring Mr. Trump's account even after it became available, and it seems that his tweets that should be considered problematic were immediately shared internally.

It is supposed to be.

It takes only two days for Twitter to permanently freeze Mr. Trump's account after the attack, but during that period 300 Twitter employees have filed an internal petition requesting that his account be permanently frozen. He said he signed it. However, sources said it had already decided that Mr. Trump's account would be permanently frozen before the petition was submitted to Twitter executives.
