Elon Musk ends legal battle and buys Twitter for $44 billion! - bjcheung77 - 10-04-2022

Yup, I thought that would happen.  I think it was all a publicity stunt... He's going through with it... 
Really made me think he wanted to "steal the deal" with a lower bid at the very end, but he didn't.

I thought I read somewhere that this could be over in a matter of days, and Elon Musk would have full control of Twitter.

Lets Go!!!

It's not over until the deal is closed and all of the documents are signed and payments clear. He is such a drama queen.

One thing is certain.  Regardless of what else he might do, Musk will find a way to keep his name in the news.  He's an insatiable egotist and publicity hound.

Yup, and he has an army of dorks who defend his every misdeed, all of them still buying into this schtick.

I appreciate the Taylor Swift reference.  I admire her career and I'm looking forward to seeing her in this new movie Amsterdam.
The fact is, I don't hate Elon Musk.  I don't agree with him on certain subjects but I don't know that he's a bad person, at least not any worse than anyone else.  I don't think there's any contradiction in liking someone and criticizing them.  It's entirely possible to like someone and also see their faults.
