‘Twitter’ is going to take $44 billion from Musk and it will still be controlled by the deep state. Musk will control Twitter about the same way that Trump was in control of his government.

On the surface, I agree but actually, Musk has had great success running other companies, so there's literally no reason he can't straighten out Twitter fast. He can just dump all the nefarious far-lefties in the company, move it to Texas and then hire tech people who actually know what they're doing. Twitter is not rocket science, although SpaceX is.

As for Trump, he's a Republican businessman trying to straighten out the U.S. government. But Trump faced dual threats - Democrats & RINOs ... a smelly, deadly, corrupt one-two punch. President Trump knew Washington was totally full of snakes. He knew it many decades ago. Even so, he thought he could accomplish a lot, and he did. But as an outsider, it was too much to expect him to totally control and fully reform the U.S. government. He still ended up with a bunch of back-stabbing snakes in his own Administration. Hard to weed them out. Snakes are extremely sneaky when they get into the weeds.

Whaat? You think somewhere there are thousands of government employees punching buttons to somehow manipulate a web platform that is sliding into irrelevance? That's flat earth level paranoia.

Musk has a huge fan contingent, including many in the media. So a megaphone is important to him for communication, and that's the only reason he was interested in Twitter. That and the bong hits he took before jumping in. When he sobered up he realized $44B is a lot for an obsolete platform overrun by bots and garbage content, no matter how much he loves his retweets.

The idea that Elon Musk cares deeply about free speech is hilarious given the way he's run his companies.
