And I hope he gets enough flak for this statement that he drops the whole idea. I KNEW this was his ultimate aim.

Go back home to Switzerland, Elon. We don't want you. We don't need you. And we don't need you undermining our society.

On April 25th, Twitter’s board of directors accepted Musk’s offer of $54.20 per share, or $44 billion, for total control of the company. It was the same price he named in his initial offer on April 14th. Upon completion of the transaction, Twitter will become a private company.

This could be the death blow for our way of life. Of course aided greatly by the jerk McConnell who broke long standing protocol by denying a Supreme Court Appointment by Obama saying it was too late to do it then in a similar situation rushing through a Trump pick.

Hope not but our Democracy could be a thing of the past soon.

Oh Reagan got the ball rolling with his drastic tax cut for filthy rich people like Musk.
