Miami, August 13 (RHC)-- On Monday evening, Trump returned to the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, for the first time since he was banned for inciting the January 6 Capitol insurrection. 

The 2-hour-long live stream hosted by CEO Elon Musk was delayed by 40 minutes due to technical malfunctions.  Trump’s return to X came after he rallied thousands of supporters in Montana over the weekend.

Donald Trump: “If comrade Walz and comrade Harris win this November, the people cheering will be the pink-haired Marxists, the looters, the perverts, the flag burners, Hamas supporters, drug dealers, gun grabbers and human traffickers.”

Trump left Montana aboard a private jet after his Boeing 757 experienced a mechanical problem.  
The Trump campaign later confirmed press reports that the Gulfstream jet was once owned by Jeffrey Epstein.  A spokesperson said the Trump campaign had “no idea” the plane used to belong to the serial sexual predator.  Trump was a longtime high-profile friend of Epstein who previously flew aboard his private planes at least seven times.
