Who's really think Elon is a dummy are just hating on the guy....Yeah...the richest man in the world is a dummy ... You can pick a lot of words to call the guy, could be an asshole if that helps...but really...all you can come up is he's the dummy? I feel like people hating on Elon right now are just hating because he doesn't lean with you politically....If ELon was charging $8/mo blue check twitter account and supports the Dems....AOC would shut her mouth on this...Lol...
You picking on my words is just gaslighting to cover your lack of arguments. I asked what in her statement made her stupid to you guys eyes.

You guys did everything except answer the question.

I would dispute the idea that having a lot of money means that someone is intelligent.

The right has all the hotties. I'd love to see a debate between AOC and the lovely Emily Compagno
I will admit Emily is hot but she's not a politician. AOC would wipe the floor with her but I'd happily make her feel better with a good old fashion tongue-lashing with those leopard pumps high in the air!!!

Time will tell how this new investment works out for Elon.

Twitter is past it's peak just like FB...I don't know what new app would take over...tiktok, youtube, instagram, twitter and facebook have co-existed side by side....snapchat is on the worst decline and is now being used by the younger crowd...I think Elon already made his money when twitter dipped....and made more money when it soared again...

He lied to the banks.
It worked but is it smart?
What did he lie about? I didn't know anything about this...there should be charges filed against him, should be an indictment...so far he's still trolling people on twitter....

Emily Compagno would crush AOC in any political debate, that I have no doubt about.
Now makeup application videos on TikTok perhaps AOC's got an advantage there.

Here's the thing, his massive success is really thanks to him being in the right place at the right time in many different ways. First, his family wealth gave him a stake to start his first business and parlay that into an investment in PayPal. He did launch SpaceX, but he is directly dependent on government subsidies. Tesla, he invested into it and became a hell of a salesman. But is he the one who created anything there? Nope. Is he a visionary? Sure. But many of his other ventures are crap. Like the Boring Company. What did it accomplish? There are verifiable facts that he created it just to impede California's plan to create high-speed rail and have people transition from cars to trains....I know, shocking for a guy who owns a car company.....

Look, I'm not going to say he isn't smart. But he isn't infallible. He's made expensive mistakes, and his ego is massive. He sure isn't above stock market manipulation or other pump & dumb schemes...

And, I'll even say that maybe his bet on Twitter will payoff. But nobody can say his first week of ownership has gone smoothly. And it could all go downhill from there. I mean, apparently he fired the CEO and some other top executives with cause in the hopes he could avoid paying $200M in golden parachutes. All that's done is likely embroiled the company in a legal battle for a few years which he'll likely lose. I've also heard from some lawyer types that by having a mass job cuts could open the company to penalties for breaking California labor laws regarding notice....

You also seem to have no doubt that Depape attacked Paul Pelosi because it was a lovers quarrel...so, you'll excuse me for not being at all concerned with what you do or do not doubt.

If you're rich you can make those problems go away.
The way rump has tried to so far.

I never said such a thing. He attacked Pelosi because he was mentally deranged.

You really think so? LOL...People like him get away with stock price manipulation all the time...Every time Musk coughs up an acronym...a certain stock soars....he was one of the main reasons GME flew to the moon and back...We will never see 1% of what Musk's net worth in our lifetime...yet you think he's a dummy....LoL...ok.
That he's allowed to get away with stock manipulation and other forms of cheating isn't proof he's smart when he makes money.
It's proof he's allowed to cheat to make more money. Which means he can make more money and be dumb that someone with less impunity who is smarter.

This is a weird argument you're making here.

lefties always laugh and quick to call on "conspiracy theories" but When it comes to Putin...it must be true...
Yup, it's a conspiracy idea and it's unprovable. But the circumstances are suggestive. EM completed the deal a week or 2 after batting publicly for The Poo and telling Ukraine that they should cut a deal with The Poo-Man. And there are rumours of a connection there. And The Poo would love more control over Western social media. So there are crazier thinks than saying The Poo funded the Twitter buy that EM was suddenly able to do, after trying to wriggle out of it for several months.
