Several high-profile supporters of Donald Trump believe that Elon Musk may reinstate the former president on Twitter as a challenge to “woke” users.

Trump allies took to Twitter on Tuesday to voice their opinions about changes they want the social networking service to make now that Musk has a significant stake and a seat on the board. Some of the comments centered on the possibility that Musk may have power to reverse Twitter’s January 2021 decision to permanently suspend Trump from the messaging service after the former president made comments praising the rioters who stormed the Capitol building on Jan. 6, which the company said had the potential to incite more violence.

When he announced Musk's new role on Tuesday, Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal explained that the two executives have had several conversations in recent weeks that led Agrawal to conclude that Musk would bring “great value to our Board.” He added that Musk is both a “passionate believer” and “intense critic” of Twitter, which makes the Tesla founder “exactly what we need.”

Indeed, Musk, a prolific Twitter user, has been critical of the social media service in recent weeks. For instance, he asked his millions of Twitter followers if “a new platform is needed” to replace Twitter, given that he believes the service is “failing to adhere to free speech principles” and is in turn undermining democracy.

The notion of what constitutes free speech on social media has been a recurring issue for many conservatives who have claimed that social media platforms are silencing their voices while promoting the views of liberals. However, numerous studies have debunked those allegations, including a recent report by the NYU Stern Center for Business and Human Rights published last year that referred to such claims as a “form of disinformation: a falsehood with no reliable evidence to support it.”
