How do we fancy in the UK, allowing an ideological San Francisco company to control the BBC.
Would India be ok with Twitter having authority to completely de-platform Modi?

Twitter stock is down because Trump had 81m followers and was a voracious Tweeter and there's likely fewer active users since his personal account was closed. The huge number of followers and Tweets is probably Twitter overlooked his misdemeanours for so long.
Some want the BBC privatised and wouldn't mind who purchased it. The debate has been conducted many times on this and other forums.
Re banning Mundi from Twitter. If you have terms and conditions then someone has to decide if they've been breached. If not the site owners, then who?

I think this particular madness will end soon.
A metaphorical civil war within the GOP between the GOP establishment and the Trumpers is going to be more interesting.
