It's Trump's CAMPAIGN ACCOUNT that Twitter banned (temporarily), not his personal account

Tweet from Washington Post reporter clarifying this:

Editing to note that the Team Trump account is tweeting again, several times in the last hour (as of 8:30 CDT).

But the message that Twitter marked for violating their rules, which they'd posted early enough for Trump to tweet the link to it several hours ago (see reply 3 below), has been removed so it no longer appears there.

His tweet is still there, but when you click on the link for the Team Trump tweet, you get the Twitter message saying it violated Twitter rules.
