        He took loans against his tesla stock to buy Twitter. If the value of that stock gets low, The banks or whoever will ask for their money. They could also sell the stock to try and recuperate some of the money and that will cause tesla to drop. Which will cause investors to sell and it’s a spiral until hopefully he’s broke. Thata why hes crying about the protests, telling his workers not to sell their stock, and having trump and his propagandists say support the asshole buy a truck!

          How is this affected by him selling X to his AI company? I know banks don’t like letting you off the hook, but I also know banks do things differently for rich people. I figured that was the reason he did it in the first place.

            according to Reuters , he sold it for 33 billion with 12 billion in debt. So 45 billion total, which is conveniently 1 billion more than what he paid originally. It also says that the banks that lent him 13 billion were finally able to sell. I wonder if the Saudis bought it.

    Two comments:

    1. If you and Elon Musk are playing bad-cop-good-cop, how shitty of a person do you have to be for Musk to play the good cop?

    2. This sound a lot like Russia saying they want peace. You know the argument that"if Ukraine just gave up their territory, government and freedom there would be no war, it’s their fault!". Same here, if Europe removed all their social security and pesky regulations so that US companies could do everything they wanted there would be no tariffs!

      After the report the other day that Trump said Musk would soon be gone, with Musk responding that that was fake news, I was expecting Trump to be playing the good cop.

    Nahh. It’d be better if Europe placed higher tariffs especially on Musk owned companies. Ban them from government contracts

    He said this in the far right political party of Salvini, current rival of the far right prime minister Meloni. Weird I thought they were loving each other, Did Meloni push him back?

    I’d say just about the same thing if I had lost a whole Boeing’s market cap worth of stock value in just about few days.
