Leftists on Twitter predictably lost their ever-loving minds following news that the world’s richest man’s hostile takeover bid for the platform will likely be successful.
The Twitter board of directors is reportedly ready to accept Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s $43 billion offer to buy all outstanding shares to bring the platform firmly under his control. Twitter was reportedly more receptive to a deal after Musk managed to secure $46.5 billion in financing. MRC President Brent Bozell welcomed the news on Twitter: “Today marks a new milestone in the fight for free speech. For the leftists, just remember you can always make your own platform if you don't like it. #TeamElon.”
Leftists clearly hated the tables being turned on them.
Media analyst Thomas Baekdal’s reaction to the news perfectly summed up the left’s response to the conquering of their censorship-obsessed echo chamber by someone who believes in free speech: “[A] Twitter owned by Musk is so abhorrent to me that I don't feel like I can be a part of it. This makes me absolutely furious!”

Why are they referred to as “the left”? Just call them what they are “Fascists’”!
Wait and see. Musk is not generally considered to be politically conservative.
ELON: All your Tweets are belong to us!
He’s more of a libertarian.

43 Billion dollars for the keys to Romper Room.
Free gasoline should be provided in front of the Supreme Court.
Lefties (and leftie trolls and bots) will boycott, and so the number of users will decline.
Also, this will affect Gettr, Truth, etc, because the need for those will decrease.
Will be interesting to watch this shake out over the next few months.
i hope he at least makes some money off of this . First up, fire twelve floors like Icahn.
Twitter reportedly nearing deal to sell itself to Elon Musk
(CNN)Twitter is said to be nearing a deal to sell itself to Elon Musk, according to The New York Times and other outlets, 11 days after the Tesla and SpaceX CEO shocked the industry by offering to buy the company in a deal valuing it at more than $41 billion.
A deal could be finalized as soon as Monday, according to the Wall Street Journal. Twitter declined to comment on the reports.
Reports that a deal is imminent come after Musk revealed last week he had lined up $46.5 billion in financing to acquire the company. Twitter’s board met Sunday to evaluate Musk’s offer to buy all the shares of the company he does not currently own for $54.20 a piece, a source familiar with the deal confirmed to CNN. The source said that discussions about Musk’s bid have turned serious.
The potential sale agreement caps off a whirlwind news cycle that began less than a month ago, when Musk revealed he had taken a more than 9% stake in the company and ramped up calls for changes to the social media platform.
