Trump returned to the social media platform with three campaign videos highlighting his vision for the country and lambasting his opponent, whom he dubs "San Francisco Radical Kamala Harris." His return to X comes as Harris is surging in several polls.
The last time Trump posted on social media was on August 24, 2023, when the former president touted his arrest photo with the caption, “Election interference. Never surrender!” Before that post, Trump had not tweeted since January 8, 2021, just two days after the Capitol riot.
Following the January 6 attack, Trump was permanently suspended by Twitter, as the company cited a “risk of further incitement of violence.” About a year later, Trump launched his own social media site, Truth Social, where he posted messages before returning to X.
