It doesn't matter because Twitter will likely be bankrupt by then and in the pockets of the banks.

I'm talking about salving his ego and give him a way to dodge responsibility. Doesn't help with the money side.

The problem is that he’s the sole owner of Twitter. Even if he sends some CEO to die, he’s still ultimately the person who has the final say. This isn’t anything like a board of directors pushing him in a bad direction or activist investors forcing him to make short sighted decisions.

He can’t dodge responsibility unless he completely gives up all ownership of Twitter, which I doubt he will do.

Jared Cushner or Trump. Only reason they'd talk to him at this point, I reckon.

Doesn't really matter who he makes CEO because that person is going to have musk's arm up their rear end working their mouth, there's not a chance in hell he appoints someone that has the leeway to run it in a reasonable manner.

Also it's very funny to me that I go to bed and wake up to musk being helicoptered over to the World Cup put in a box with his Saudi investors demanding him to loving buck up and so he whines and puts up a poll asking people if he should leave. And everyone is like, yeah man also make the insane woman behind libsoftiktok ceo. Lowtax would have loved to see this

Nah, he's gonna pick a lib because when the company finally crashes (after he's pointed the nose at the ground) he'll be able to blame it on them and say liberals don't know how to run a business unlike him, a genius

I think some people are missing the point. Musk wants to lose this. "Winning" the poll isn't going to make him more popular - "vox populi" would simply compel him to remain the clown in charge. He's gone through so many rapidfire fuckups in the past week and gotten so many people who liked him to go "hey what the gently caress" that he's figured out that he has to break away from the commitment he's tied himself into. Setting up this poll is just an excuse to cut loose and get some personal breathing room.

He will suffer either way, but if no wins he will have to keep on suffering.

I don't understand why anyone thinks he's even this smart. He's not smart enough to rig his own polls. I am no longer convinced he's smart enough to breathe.

This is all obviously hilarious, but it's really special to me that in his mind, people would have been torn on the tunnel idea. An idea so good that he has to concede to its brilliance even if it chips away at his point.

By the time this is over Elon Musk will at best be popular the way that Tommy Wiseau is popular
