Is he in Scientology? He’s gone off the cliff like most of them do.

No. This is just a regular billionaire, same as all the rest.

Most billionaires at least have enough sense to keep a low profile.

There is nothing regular about what musk is doing. Most billionaires only make the news when they lay off or bust unions or something. When's the last time bezos was in the news for Twitter trolling?

No, he is just a man child who was forced into dumping billions into a social media platform because he sucks at trolling.

"I'm going to pay 44 billions for Twitter"

"Ok, deal"

"Syke"

*Twitter legal team's music starts playing

That music is Yakety Sax.

That's the funny thing; he wasn't forced into it. He could have just paid $1bn for his idiotic 420 joke (or probably much less if he'd settled out of court) and gotten away without any further damage. But instead, he took out a $13 billion loan and spent another $21bn of his own money for it. So instead of setting $1bn or less on fire, he set $34 billion on fire. Plus the additional money that his idiotic compatriots put up. This truly is the dumbest timeline.

Edit: He also ended up selling a shit load of his TSLA stock to make one of his payments to the bank, which caused tesla to tank in the market costing him untold billions as well. He is not a smart man.
