What does it have to do if Republicans? You're giving refs and links but not a single one of them makes any mention of Republicans.
Also your intro doesn't match your refs.

#23Seeing Elon flail about so publicly like this is just hilarious to me. I feel like we're way off track right now from his original purpose of buying twitter (more free speech or something??? then it was bots then 8$ checkmarks and I can't even keep up anymore)
This is what happens when you habitually work hundred plus hour weeks and perhaps get only five hours sleep a night. There's little to no method to his madness at this point.
Is he working though?? It seems to me that he just spends all day on twitter. Not all that different from myself actually, except no one is writing books and stories about me and my mythical 100 hour work weeks.

#24At this point, I'm kinda wondering if Musk's deal to finance the Twitter acquisition included some Brewster's Millions -style clause where he gets to keep the company and the $44B if the company goes bankrupt within 90 days.
For anyone not familiar, this movie is worth checking out:
> Monty Brewster is a Minor League Baseball pitcher with the Hackensack Bulls. He and his best friend, Spike Nolan, the Bulls' catcher, are arrested after a post-game bar fight. A man offers to post their bail if they will come to New York City with him. At the Manhattan law office of Granville & Baxter, Brewster is told that his recently deceased great-uncle Rupert Horn, whom he has never met, has left him his entire $300 million fortune but only if he can complete a challenge with several conditions.
> Brewster can choose to receive $1 million upfront or attempt to inherit the whole estate by spending $30 million in 30 days. In the former case, the law firm becomes the executor of the estate, collecting a fee for performing this service and dividing the remainder among several charities. In the latter case, Brewster may not own any assets that are not already his at the end of the 30 days. He must get value for the services of anyone he hires, he may not give it away (except for 5% in gambling losses and 5% to charity) nor may he willfully damage anything bought with the money. Finally, he must keep it secret. If he fails to meet all terms, he forfeits any remaining balance and inherits nothing. Brewster decides to take the $30 million challenge, and Angela Drake, a paralegal from the law firm, is assigned to accompany him and keep track of his spending.

Not sure if they have legal, compliance, or privacy at this point either.

I suspect he is working but probably has a very short attention span.

#27I've always wanted to work for Musk, but never felt like I was skilled enough to work on spaceships or cars... But Twitter? I am thinking about applying, so go ahead and quit.
80hr+ in-office work weeks with no equity and the threat of being instantly fired for appearing disloyal in Slack or correcting the CEO... sounds fun!

Mike Griffin is a Republican, the whole Strategic Defense Initiative is a Republican initiative since Reagan.
You may need to read some background to get a clear picture.

Lol. Suit yourself. Enjoy working for a egomaniacal manchild
I mean - it wouldn’t be boring. People like adventure. There’s a reason they free solo El Capitan. Those devs are out there.

I want to work on cool things, not specific people.
One should let go of idols past their teenage years.
