Most people don't have the highly elevated sense of outrage and victimhood that you do. I didn't quit Twitter when Trump was spouting his poorly thought out stream of consciousness tweets and I didn't quit when he was banned. If Trump is allowed back on Twitter, I'll shake my head but it won't change my Twitter status. I'll continue to make my 2 or 3 tweets per year.MinotStateBeav said:
which one of you will quit twitter? Musk is obviously going to bring back the Big Orange one, that's gotta make you mad enough to quit the platform. Step up and tell us.
Twitter is a waste, I never signed up for it. What's the point when you have BI Off Topic?MinotStateBeav said:

No one cares.
They really dont.
The only real interesting aspect to this whole "saga" is how Elon doesnt want to be deposed.
Imagine spending $44 BILLION so that you arent deposed.
lol

A day after Elon Musk announced his intention to buy Twitter after all and avert a trial, a private equity firm set to finance part of the deal has reportedly backed out.https://t.co/IGRNPKvY66

Digital World Acquisition Company (DWAC) has been pounded.
You remember DWAC right?
They were the blank check company that was supposed to merge with Trump's Truth Social.
Shares of DWAC have collapsed from $175 per share to $17.
Truth Social is swirling the drain.

Assuming you believe that the will of the people matters, we should, in any given conflict region, support the will of those who live there.

Most of Ukraine unequivocally wants to be part of Ukraine, but some eastern portions have Russian majorities and prefer Russia.
The reason Elon Musk is the perfect person to own Twitter is that just like everyone else on this site he knows jack shit about everything and yet posts with absolute confidence.

You know Elon is right about eastern Ukraine though. I watched a Ukrainian Foreign Fighter (American) talk about how they operate away from civilians in Eastern Ukraine because the population is so pro-Russian. This is a guy fighting FOR Ukraine.okaydo said:Assuming you believe that the will of the people matters, we should, in any given conflict region, support the will of those who live there.

So what's the knock on effect to Tesla stock?
Has he found another partner or will he be forced to sell more stock? Or both.

That's not the issue.
I think you're missing the Big Picture.
What Elon is now doing is getting yet another opportunity to get out of the "deal".
The agreement with Twitter has always been dependent on obtaining debt financing.
He knows damn well that economic conditions and financial liquidity are far worse than back in April when he initially announced the deal and interest rates were lower.. - - - The Banks are in this for $12.5 Billion and financial market conditions have clearly changed from April. It might not be all that easy to "offload" that debt to outside investors, hedge funds, and other financial institutions (for the fees that they make). As a result, their RISK just went up Big Time.
Musk's secret "wild" card has always been that suddenly lenders walk in and say that they're not willing to finance it. He winds up avoiding a deposition, a lawsuit, and going through with a $44 Billion dollar deal that puts a lot of pressure (and risk) to Tesla shareholders. - - - He simply pays a $1 Billion dollar break-up fee and moves on.
