After former President Donald Trump posted his mugshot on X —his first post in more than two years —X owner Elon Musk shared some surprising stats in an effort to get the POTUS back on the platform.
First, Musk simply replied “Next-level.”

“The speed at which your message on this platform can reach a vast number of people is mind-blowing,” Musk added in an attempt to goad Trump into posting.
A few hours later, Musk shared the stats on Trump’s post.
“Approximately 10 million views per hour of this image,” Musk wrote.

Trump has previously said that TRUTH Social is his social media platform of choice —of course, he owns it. Musk has unbanned Trump since taking control of Twitter/X and wants him back on the platform.
