In case you missed the latest Elon Musk headline, the world's richest man – and possible Twitter purchaser/next-in-line CEO – has just confirmed everyone's worst fears: Once his takeover bid is finalised, he plans to reinstate Donald Trump's Twitter account, describing the decision to ban him in the first place as "morally wrong" (Trump was permanently suspended from the service in January 2021, following the violent storming of the U.S. Capitol buildings by his supporters).
"Musk said that one of the first things he would do after the acquisition goes through is lift the permanent Twitter ban on Donald Trump," James Corden says in the Late Late Show clip above. "I tell you what, we are leaving this show in the nick of time, gang. Timed that one perfectly. Musk explained that permanent bans should be reserved for bots, spam, or scam accounts — and I can say, it's scam. It's scam. Donald Trump is a scam accounts. It's all a scam."
Corden goes on to say that banning Trump was one of the "few almost good things" Twitter's done.
"It's that, Wheels vs. Doors, that debate, and the time that one guy said his cousin looks like a honey bun. That's basically it."
