    Of course he deleted those posts. The only thing Elon cares about is acquiring more money. The richest guy in the world just doesn’t have enough god damn money. So some dumbass posts of his cost him $120 Billion, gotta take those down.

    I hope this asshole gets pancreatic cancer.

    Spending $447 million to influence an election and then deleting the posts when it goes badly is quite a business model. Apparently you can buy a social network, an enormous megaphone and plenty of political access, but you still can’t buy the electorate. The delete button must be getting more use than Grok.

      I’d say you can’t buy the electorate when things are a certain level of bad and obvious. During more normal times you absolutely can convince the electorate to do horrible things with money/ads.

        These races would’ve been lost if the candidates weren’t all the worst people they could’ve possibly put up at the worst possible time. You can always buy elections. Musk just got outbid.

    Funny! I’ll feel a tinge of sadness when he realizes nobody has or will ever love him and he does something about it. 🎻
