Hearing "just a few days away" scared me thinking I time travelled or was on autopilot for an entire month but then I remembered how little a month is for lawyers.

[misterspaceman]

I'm starting to suspect that maybe, just maybe, Elon Musk may not be very smart

[MitchellTF]

Setting it in February is also him basically admitting he doesn't have the evidence on the bots NOW...

[jimstoesz]

I hope the Judge throws the book at Musk for this nonsense. He never wanted to buy Twitter, he just wanted to create a big enough stir in the stock market to help his friends with their There needs to be consequences for this sort of blatantly manipulative behaviour.

[faffywhosmilesatdeath]

I think someone forgot that the month of August exists

[dinoballz]

From the moment it came out I was laughing at the contradiction of Musk ending the deal because he concluded there were too many bots and then saying he needs months of discovery to conclude there are too many bots.

elon better stop buying avocado toast!

[bazzfromthebackground]

Most expensive "F_ around and find out."

[lionbryce]

"I dont care about the bots"

[JasonBoyce]

Musk: “I’m going to cancel the deal because you’re not giving me access to the information I want.

Also Musk: “We need to push the trial back until next year so we can sort through the firehose of information you gave me”

[meetmeatball]

I just hope he ends up paying $1bn to twitter and not owning twitter. This in my opinion is the best possible outcome .

[dichroichameleon]

I'm super okay with musk getting a comeuppance.

[wugglebee]

"Don't mess around with the Delaware Chancery Courts" sounds like an obscure prophecy from a fantasy story.

[draigon]

They suddenly can get trials through quick when rich people are involved

[MrCipasa]

lol i love how all this started with twitter not wanting to sell, to them trying force him to buy.

[angrydalek]

It’d be real funny if he has to pay twitter the $42bn without actually getting ownership of the platform.

Seriously, this guy needs his wealth knocked down a few pegs

[noksuan]

brah not just Twitter, theirs more bots than people in the enternet

[justanotheranimeprofilepic]

Remember when Bill gates was the richest man alive? I miss that, he made rich people look good unlike the jocks of rich people we have now

[pathevermore]

ITS NOT THE END OF AUGUST! STOP PLAYI G WITH MY HEART!

[halfbakedmedia]

Screw that guy, he's just Alex Jones with tact and money.
