After micro-blogging site Twitter banned his personal account on Friday, US President Donald Trump suggested that he would look at creating his own platform.

Trump tweeted from the US president's official @Potus account suggesting he would "look at the possibilities of building out our own platform in the future".

But the tweets were removed immediately from Twitter as soon as they were posted.

Twitter Inc has permanently banned Trump citing a risk of further incitement of violence following the storming of the US Capitol on Wednesday.

“After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them — specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter — we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence,” the company wrote in a blog post on Friday.

On Friday, Trump tweeted "The 75,000,000 great American Patriots who voted for me, AMERICA FIRST, and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, will have a GIANT VOICE long into the future. They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!"
Shortly thereafter, the President tweeted, "To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th.”
Twitter said that due to the ongoing tensions in the United States, and an uptick in the global conversation in regards to the people who violently stormed the Capitol on Wednesday, these two tweets must be read in the context of broader events in the country and the ways in which the President’s statements can be mobilized by different audiences.

Twitter said this was "being received by a number of his supporters as further confirmation that the election was not legitimate" and the tweets were "in violation of the Glorification of Violence Policy".
