A lot of talk about Elon wanting to buy Disney and might be partnering up with Nelson Peltz, who is the largest shareholder of Disney who is not a fan of what Disney has become. This would be awesome to see Elon clean house at Disney and turn it back to what it was before going woke.

Recently, Tesla CEO Elon Musk attended the premiere of the film Lola (2024). On the red carpet, Musk was stopped by a reporter from FabTV, asking what brought him there. He replied, “I’m just here with friends… Thinking about what companies to acquire.” The SpaceX CEO then made a face as he walked off.

While he doesn’t make any direct comments regarding the House of Mouse, it’s an easy insinuation, primarily because of the man he was seen with at the premiere: Nelson Peltz.

A noted billionaire and businessman, Peltz has most recently been in the news for wanting to make significant changes to the Walt Disney Company’s board, specifically starting the “restore the magic” campaign to fix the issues he sees with the company’s recent projects and statements through the shareholders.

I doubt this is real but if so the SEC is going to have some questions.

Unless you can get it at a discount it seems like more trouble than it’s worth.

The elites are all compromised. It doesn’t matter.

Elon isn't interested in a media company like Disney. He sees X replacing traditional media anyway.

He sees wokeism as a threat to humanity that must be destroyed. Disney is woke AF.

Elon's lone goal in his mind is to save humanity so running Disney doesn't fit in with that. Destroying it in its current form does.

DIS market cap down to $180 Bil - so around $95B for controlling interest?

Disney would go from a shining beacon to the Left to the worst company on the face of the Earth to them if this happened.

Please?

Elon has been taking more losses than Trump lately. I hope he does. The schadenfreude will be spectacular.

His first addition should be Mikey MUSKrat. Mickey’s cousin on his mom’s side.

Musk always struck me as more of a Star Trek fan than a Star Wars fan.

Grown men idolizing other men has gotta be one of the worst outcomes of 2016.

That would be awesome. Nelson Peltz needs a partner in his fight to make Disney right again.
