    It’s insane that both of them think this will help…

    They truly don’t understand that the vast majority of Americans fucking hate them. And the ones that do like one of them, already like both.

    Zero people will have any change of opinion because of this.

      I’m still wondering, do they have an advicing team or something like that or do they just always act on their own, on instinct ?

      Because if they do, it’s either they never listen, either the advisers are at least as delusional and that’s even more baffling.

      Do we know this for sure?

      Oh, it will help. Elon can afford to tank the losses from share price fall, then he’ll grab loads more with a discount and there will be an eventual rebound. And then we will have the very first trillionaire in the world.

      I guess one of the reasons for Musk to murder Twitter shares was to test how effectively he can tank the financial damage and still ride it out before going full nuclear on his companies.

      Reminds me of one British twat called Humphrey Smith, who owns all companies as unlimited and tanks all legal expenses himself so he can do whatever the fuck he wants with them and with staff. Oh, he also owns a town and does whatever the fuck he wants there too.
