It is his money; he can spend it as he wishes.
It possibly could be a chance to turn $54Billion into $34.00 or maybe $54Trillion, in Biden dollars

Just heard on Fox Business that Morgan Stanley is advising Elon Musk and Golsman Sachs is advising Twitter (or vice versa). This should be interesting.

Another take on the same.

BREAKING: Elon Musk Offers To Buy 100% Of Twitter
BENZINGA - 10 MINUTES AGO
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk has offered to buy all the shares in Twitter Inc. (NYSE:TWTR) — that he already doesn’t own — at $54.20 per share, an amendment to a 13D filing made with the SEC on Thursday morning shows.

This would represent a 54% premium over the social media company’s stock’s closing price on January 28, the day before Musk began investing in Twitter and 38% premium over April 1 closing price — the day before Musk’s stake in Twitter was disclosed.

“I invested in Twitter as I believe in its potential to be the platform for free speech around the globe, and I believe free speech is a societal imperative for a functioning democracy,” Musk told Twitter Chairperson Bret Taylor on Wednesday, as disclosed in the filing. “However, since making my investment I now realize the company will neither thrive nor serve this societal imperative in its current form. Twitter needs to be transformed as a private company.”

Musk also said he believes “the company should be private to go through the changes that need to be made.”

This comes after Musk declined to join the Twitter board.

I’ve been saying for years that there’s money on the table for conservative millionaires to take on biased media.

He’s offering a price to buy it out way over what it is going for right now.

From an investment standpoint, what is Twitter really worth? They have no tangible assets, just a forum for people to chat about stuff.

Trump is having a tough time getting his platform up and running. Lots of bugs but it is making progress. For lots less money. Still in Beta, not ready for Prime-Time.

Or maybe Musk is just throwing a high offer out knowing that it will be rejected. Just monkeying with the fish. Lots of worms in the water knowing that they won’t bite. I suspect that that’s what he is doing.

Again, Twitter really doesn’t have much real value, plus Musk, if he took it over, would have to deal with all of those Libs who now work for it and would never work for him. Those Libs would leave programing time-bombs that would cause the platform to crash. They would never follow Musk’s directives. All new hires. The algorithms are already written to cancel out Conservative comments.

Can’t change the Libs mind-set nor get them to change the programing. So from a business standpoint, there is no way that Musk would really buy this thing. Sort of like buying some of those Chinese “Ghost” cities that were built, knowing that they were built with “Chinese” materials and labor. Pre-programed to crash.

Love it. Elon putting some of his 278 billion dollar FU money to work. I would not be surprised if there were growing calls to draft him to run for President. It would be the country’s first remote worker Presidency with the oval office housed in the bedroom of the new White House that is his single wide trailer near the unpopulated rural Tex Mex border. His Presidency would best be likened to an autistic eccentric rich monk running the world. We need one of those running things. Can’t be any worse than what we have now. lol

IMHO, this is just a feint on Musk’s part.

Well that was the rumor for the past few days. I’ll bet the first thing he does is reinstate Trump.
