Florida Politics reports:
Many Republicans reveled at the Elon Musk Twitter takeover, eager to see former President Donald Trump back on the medium that fueled his political magic last decade, even as Trump says he won’t return.
Yet some Trump allies are quieter in advocating the President’s return to the world of 280-character constructions. Among them: U.S. Sen. Rick Scott.
During a Bloomberg Television interview Wednesday afternoon, Scott, who chairs the National Republican Senatorial Committee, sidestepped a specific question about the former President’s return and how it would affect Republican Senate candidates.
Read the full article. Yesterday Politico reported that Republicans are terrified that Trump would damage their midterm prospects if he gets his account back. As you can see below, Scott raged about Trump’s ban shortly after the Capitol riot.

.@Twitter has now permanently banned President Trump’s account.
Meanwhile they allow the Chinese to openly brag about genocide and the Ayatollah to talk about wiping Israel off the face of the map.
How can they defend this? Their attacks on conservatives are shameful.
