This is a guy who is guilty of spreading disinformation! And he's actually destroying the culture and productivity of Twitter with his childish, ego-based antics.

He may know how to build cars and rockets, but he doesn't know anything about managing people or communications. He's showing everybody how incompetent he is and trashing Twitter as well.

This isn't about politics at all--it's about a man with too much money using it to attempt to control a platform that needs to be managed and monitored, but not controlled.

I suspect that's why he wanted to back out of the deal--he knew he didn't have what it takes to lead in this environment and he knew it was going to backfire. Frankly, the Twitter BOD should have let him back out. Now the platform is a joke.
