If Twitter says that it's not in the Board's power or policies to be involved in decisions like who is and is not to be banned from using the service, then those powers and policies will have to be changed before the Board can involve itself in those issues.


Are you assuming this is specific "policy" or do you know?

You act like a choice to ban THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES from your platform is akin to choosing the brand of coffee in the break room.

According to Twitter, the Board only plays an advisory role, not a decision making role, in these type of matters. So it is reasonable to assume that these sort of decisions are not within the powers set forth for Twitter's Board.

I'm certainly not downplaying the issue or discounting it. It's not like I agreed with Twitter's choice to ban him. I'm just saying that it isn't as simple as Elon Musk just being able to tell Twitter to un-ban Trump.
