 Trump can setup his own relay.  Then he can choose to not ban himself.  He could probably easily afford a large network of relays worldwide.

Unlike mastodump, his relay network can't be "cut off" because clients contact relays directly.

 People need to know where to look, they also need to know he was censored by the relays in the first place.  But he can't relay that message if hes censored.  Will folk have to scour the internet to check every time he doesn't tweet for a few days, or can the outbox model solve this automatically?

 NIP-65 says "Clients SHOULD spread an author's kind:10002 event to as many relays as viable"  the idea being that there is no centralized index, but these events are small and one-per-person (replaceable) so they can go just about everywhere without much overhead.  That way people can be found as they move around.
