Count me in on that. I wouldn’t mind working for Musk.

May be true, but he’s got his own site now anyway.

Every tweet of Trump’s was followed by a hundred disgusting replies. Some might have been bots but I think it was mostly just wacko leftists. I don’t blame him for not going back because it would be the same. They have a fixation on him. Bunch of Rob Reiner types.

Elon Musk buys Twitter for $54.20 per share in takeover deal worth $44BN: Tesla tycoon takes social media giant private and promises 'new features, to defeat the spam bots and to make the algorithms open source to increase trust'

Note to Musk: Get Islamicat out of Twitter jail while you're at it.

If he can design a car that drives itself, he can design a computer program to do 90% of what Twitter employees do. (Or rather, what they are supposed to be doing.)

The vexing question is who gets fired first?

Hopefully that bearded leftist wonder anti Trumper, former CEO of Twitter , Jack Dorsey, will have an exploding head event. Hey, he brought it on himself!

Go Elon Musk!

Now watch Twitter make money like never before and leave FaceBook far behind.The Twitterverse is about to become a 1st Amendmentverse.

Zuckerberg must go also

America cannot just let this guy get away with his part in the vote rigging of 2020

Hostile takeover of Facebook would be great !

“...and authenticating all humans”

I’m already authentic, thank you.
I’ll pass on your globalist “authentication” program.
I’ll bet it will look like a digital passport.
...maybe a prophetic utterance
...maybe just an udderance, because it will not be a digital passport, but simply a cow ear tag =o)

Remember, this is the same Musk (neuralink) who wants to connect everyone’s brain to computers.

...that is all

I’d guess whatever Trump says on Truth Social, will immediately show up on Twitter anyway.☺

making the algorithms open source to increase trust

Now THAT is big. This means more shadow bans or demoted content based on political leanings.

Dorsey isn’t even on the board anymore or an officer in the company, you miss that? He’s out, he sold his stock to Musk.

It’s so much fun to see the lefties freaking out over this. Maybe they’ll trade in their Teslas. :)

Time for a real free speech platform.
