To all the idiots who claimed Elon Musk overpaid for X and tanked its value……

Seems like X’s real value is worth all of legacy media and big tech combined and then some seeing that it played a pivotal role in electing POTUS.

It is both slowly and quickly replacing the usual forms of media

They see it and they know it, that's why they're trying to stop it

I bet that judge from Delaware and those former Twitter owners feel quite stupid for forcing Elon Musk to buy Twitter.

Elon musk doesn’t give a flying frick about the money. He was upside down $20B as soon as he purchased twitter. It’s about principle to him.

100% of the social media platforms were owned by liberals before musk bought X. The second the tune changed on X, zucker started coming around mildly and other social media platforms were unable to rig their posts as effectively as they could before Elon. I don't like to give all of the credit to any one person, but musk was the biggest contributor to trump winning. And to think the deal almost didn't go through until liberals forced him to go through with it. Coming out of an era where Republicans shoot themselves in the foot, it's nice to see the liberals falling in their own traps.

You and I both know he was backing out due to bots causing an over evaluation. He was trying to get it for less.

As soon as I clicked on this post I knew you’d be one of the first few to respond to correct the OP with your brilliance.



You are such a miserable count

Probably because his investors and lawyers started to fill his head with financial concerns - valid or not. In the end, he was forced to buy it and I’d wager to say he didn’t overpay.

My opinion is Elon’s America PAC shifted this from a “pick ‘em” to a landslide. The ground game and data analysts that team employed was/is exceptional.
