They were not content neutral. They by themselves said that they wont apply the same rules on Trump then on other political players on twitter. They did not wanted to ban or limit him, because he was president and thus special.

That is not being content neutral. Had it been content neutral, his account would be policed the same way as other peoples years ago.
