StefanThere was a period of time I wondered if the cost burden of twitter would cause elon to sell it (at a loss) and a real business to take over.

Guy LeCharles Gonzalez@stefan Most of what he paid was other people's money (all of whom had a similar agenda), so there was never a real danger of it hurting him financially. He played the long game with Trump and won.
