  1. I hope someone shoots his private jet out of the sky.

  2. Tesla is done. Traditional car manufacturer are making better ev. Tesla is done. Elon is not dumb he knows the good days are behind. That is why he panic buys overpaying twitter. Twitter is also done. Musk is on a free fall. He is done.

  3. Elon and Zuckerberg will be standing in a soup line soon !

  4. Who ever supports trumps deserve the great fall

  5. Now he's got some cash…

  6. Chose the wrong moment in my life to invest in tesla 😭😭😭😮‍💨

  7. Elon.knows that Lithium shortage will collapse his company. Getting out while he can. Elon said his company was overvalued a year ago

  8. It's all about the banks. It's not a coincidence that he just took out a massive loan to buy Twitter and now he needs cash. Just imagine how bad Twitter will be when it gets repossessed by a private bank…

  9. Was that alexa or siri

  10. Elon has simply evolved into another right wing troll.l

  11. It's funny how Musk was the Left's hero until he bought Twitter and began releasing all the info he has on the collaboration between the Biden White House and Twitter. Now he's a bad guy and a looser. Things that make you go Hmmmmmm.

  12. disgusting scum attacking elon for trying to protect his family.

  13. All of the other companies restaurants etc in Twitter HQ have to pay rent and Musk is no different than any of them

  14. He needed to pay bad Twitter loans… He’ll soon get paid huge again and will buy more Tesla stock. Stop the FUD! Never bet against Elon!

  15. nbc, bet you have a problem with musk , eh? Did he take away one of your beloved dems propaganda tools? Stay still have you though, right? You really dont like freedom of speech do ya? Too bad you cant censor twitter like you censor your reporters. America knows what you are .

  16. Never has one man face the hate of the Nazis in America the white racist the anti-semite of network television standing alone facing down these white racist supremacist Nazis and neo-nazis of the KKK American Media of anti-Semitic racist

  17. musk is like a modern day Edsel Ford.

  18. He is either buying something or paying off something. I doubt he just wants that much cash laying around.

  19. Why would he sell ? Because they are going belly up, why? Too much $$. Elon you should have known to sell cars, they must be reliable and cheap, things Tesla will never be.

  20. Karma will deal with Musk!! And it's coming

  21. LoL sell low 😆…he may do us a favor with his Stitch impression 🇺🇲

  22. Elon ultimate pump and dump

  23. Elon Musk, sue me for your money that I owe you!

  24. Twitter is dead as an open media platform.

  25. A lot of assumptions and guesses here – amazing journalism indeed!

  26. Elon Musk needs the cash to pay for his Twitter landlord rent and various vendors he owes money to.

  27. you would think a billion air would have a medical team that would tell him he is starting to look anemic, one of the easiest colors to see just under the skin in people that are having difficulty processing O2. Hope you get a better team Elon. Or dose the news just pic pictures they can run threw a color filter, you know like they do in the movies when they need to make someone look like they are sick and dying.

  28. Most loved Elon til he started to think for himself.
    Most loved Trump til he started to think for himself.

  29. you will lose everything thx to musk

  30. He's allowing the people the have power by buying cheap tesla stock.

  31. I'm more likely to believe that you're not confident way before I think elon's not competent he can spend whatever he f**** wants to send his pocket just like anybody else he's not using Tesla as a pocketbook he's not a broke b** only broke b**** run around in their pocket shaking themselves down he's not a scavenger so stop acting like he is. That's what you would do after you spent $43 billion on a company and it's not going the way that you wanted to go you would f*** your s*** up he's not thinking about f**** up his s*** he knows exactly what he's doing

  32. l am super excited my financial life has totally changed ever since I ventured into crypto market. Ive been earning over $12,000 every single week. Lol 😊

  33. This guy is genius….Prodigy of Trump's Aide. He know correct calculations, etc. Don't worry, this man can't go bankrupt. He's genius like iron man.
