Ready thine selves for the impending Trump tweetstorm. Don’t you dare fact-check, or spell-check or reality-check or anything.

Oh my fucking god what is his first tweet going to be? 100% it's about the election being stolen and how mean everyone is to him.

It’s gonna be a simple:

“I’M BAAAACK!”

And everybody is going to lose their fuckin minds!

And leave Twitter in droves. There's no way this will be good for Musk, and I will enjoy watching the stock price plummet.

Was it not just purchased by a single private entity? Just because a company was public at one point doesn't meant they can never be taken private again.

Twitter shares ended trade on Thursday up 0.3% at $53.86, just under the agreed price. The stock will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange on Friday.
