Twitter Takeover

Phoenix, AZ, Us

"But it is pretty entertaining watching Elon light billions of dollars on fire and toss it out the window."

It gets even better. Interest charges alone amount to about $1.5B, which is a lot. Some of the funding Musk used comes with an interest rate of above 11%. One idea being floated is that he convert that portion to a margin account backed by Tesla stock (terrible idea, btw).

I don't have a Twitter account, but it has long been an interesting place full of people who can condense big ideas into small messages. Writer Twitter, Black Twitter, Science Twitter, and journalists are the place's strengths, plus local law enforcement, etc., has found it useful for alerting people to things they might otherwise miss.

All of those advantages pre-dated Trump's run for the presidency.

Twitter is a useful tool.

I follow the subjects that interest me, none having to do with politics.

Lots of accomplished people share their expertise on twitter...

"Why do so many people give a fuck about musk or Twitter?"

I've never followed Twitter either.

But it is pretty entertaining watching Elon light billions of dollars on fire and toss it out the window.

“Never been on it. Don't plan to. Don't care.“

Ditto

But I do have to admit what Musk has revealed is absolutely a epic BOOMERANG into the back of Democrats heads .

Montpelier, OH, Us

I must be missing something.

Why do so many people give a fuck about musk or Twitter?

Never been on it. Don't plan to. Don't care.

To my recollection. Twitter wasn't much of a thing until Trump started doing a daily thing on it. I honestly wish he hadn't done that.

DB,

Can you please list a few of these Twitter Experts you speak of?

Do they share or differ in your views of Twitter?

With all the Twitter experts in these forums, surely someone from SLS will step up to the plate.

Twitter owner Elon Musk confirmed Tuesday evening he will step down as the company’s CEO, but only when he identifies a successor, directly addressing for the first time a Twitter poll he created this week in which millions of users voted for his ouster.

In a tweet, Musk said he would resign “as soon as I find someone foolish enough to take the job!”

Am I living in some fucked up universe?

The right wing is demanding that a business DO SOMETHING that they feel is not in their best interest. That there is talks of a CONGRESSIONAL INVESTIGATION. Ron De Santis is demanding it.

Fuck, where is Disney World now RON.

Fuck, where is that cake maker and the gay wedding!

Damn, I never knew how much Republicans loved regulations and mandates.

@Flip , I have a friend who works for contractors to the US government . He grew up in Texas his job is he administers contracts companies get to do what ever for the US government . He never lets us know who he works for or what he really does . He has a condo in Washington DC and a beach house in Galveston .He does most of his business online but flies out for meetings …He has told me before that Washington DC is not even
part of the US . Then he shakes his head and changes the conversation.

@funfor, ""This government is full of criminals.".... yup !

Richards, TX

Have you heard the story about the people involved in the Twitter censor and cover up. Elon says he will release this and if he does he could be in danger . This government is full of criminals.

Looks like ol Elon really doesn’t believe in Free Speech.

Tweeter has suspended Ye’s account again.

And you fool believed things are changing.

Tim "Apple" as the last president called him, will put Elon's dick in the dirt if Elon causes Apple to pull their advertisement.

This is NOT the war that Elon really wants. He should learn from the last guy that had too many wars going on at the same time in his quest to rule the world.

trump is claiming he has no intention to return to twitter, which kind of makes sense since he has a large stake in truth social.

But we all know what an egotist he is and he only has 4.5mm followers on truth social and had over 88mm followers on twitter when he got banned. I predict he won't be able to resist the urge to brag about being important again and will post his first tweet before the end of November.

You may be correct this time Mick. I predict parades in NYC by Thursday. Right down the middle of 6th Ave. Bands, Floats, Big Ass Ballon’s, The Rockets. And then at the end, the very last thing. His Return!!!!!

Says the guy who has never once gotten a single prediction right and does nothing but repeat lies because he is too stupid to recognize facts when they slap him in the face.
