For the Russian, Saudi, and Republican billionaire investors who invested in Twitter, it was money well spent.

They lost billions in value, but feel they are on the cusp of ending American constitutional democracy permanently.

Exactly.  #Elmo is carrying out "A controlled demolition" of #X (formerly #Twitter.)

I (and others) have been saying this since early 2023.
However, many saw (and still see) it as a "conspiracy theory". Alas, it clearly isn't, Nicole.

The best predictor of future behavior, is past behavior.

Musk fired the staff that made Twitter an effective social media platform.

Why would anyone shoot their own horse as they rode it?

Musk was paid by his investors to torch Twitter to thwart its use by democracies.

Musk intends America to have the same fate as Twitter.

Torched to the ground to benefit his patrons & investors.
