Twitter Releases Elon Musk’s Excuses For Backing Out Of Deal To Buy Platform

Read more HERE:

"Back in April, Elon Musk made a $44 billion offer to buy Twitter before he decided in July that he wanted to cancel the deal. But that’s not how it works when you’ve already made a legally binding commitment. And a new court filing from Twitter pokes hole after hole in every complaint the Tesla CEO has made about the purchase agreement.

Twitter sued Musk last month, explaining that he was still on the hook to fork over all that cash. Musk countersued and submitted explanations for why he didn’t want the social media company anymore and Twitter has responded to those claims in a court filing in Delaware unsealed on Thursday.

Twitter didn’t pull any punches in the 127-page filing, walking right up to the line of calling Musk an idiotic liar without actually using those words. But they were damn close."

Elon Musk has, once again, been one of the most talked about people on Earth in 2022. That's what he gets for his money. That's what he wants. He's a Trump's Trump.

I remember in the beginning when this first came up, Elon was tweeting that the bots were part of the reason he wanted to buy Twitter in the first place, so he could get rid of them. He can't use bots to get out of the deal when bots were part of the reason he wanted in the deal in the first place.

[Michelle_Schu-blacka]

He said he was buying Twitter to sort out the bots, now he's saying he doesn't want Twitter because of the bots.

[brandonmclendon]

When Elon announced that he was buying Twitter, I predicted that he would break the deal through some BS excuse. And I was right

[ComfortRoller]

The more I read about musk the more I learn he is just a con.

[apparentlynotstLeonchubbs]

If Musk was as brilliant as many are assuming, I would like to think a person as EXTREMELY active on social media as him would have enough foresight to think about the implications of bots before even starting the negotiations. But he got in deep before he was talking about em... this is 100% a dude changing his mind and not wanting to actually buy 🤷 Oh well. I don't care either way. But some people need to realize that this isn't space Jesus. It's a dude who's had better life opportunities than most of us. But still a dude.

Reminder, if a corporation is a person, owning it is slavery and illegal under the 13th amendment.😒

[mrsansen]

He should be allowed to back out, and then be fined for market manipulation to the tune of 69 billlion. Or 420. He would love that.

[nickstoli]

The only person who didn't know a lot of Twitter users were bots was Elon Musk?

[beratnabodhi]

All the sycophantic Musk fan bois coming on to defend their wet dream cracks me up.

[MaJoRMJR]

I knew Elon wasn't going to go through with the deal the second it was announced, I even commented at the time about it. Especially after the "deal" led to the stock value of Tesla being slashed after it, meaning Elon couldn't secure the loan needed to buy twitter because the leverage he needed to get the loan had vanished.

[MrBibi]

*I like how he trolled all these right-winger trolls that probably thought they were going to get their Twitter accounts unbanned*

[lynseyluvsatwink]

I heard Elon's hair transplants are telling him not to buy Twitter

[stephencurry]

Amazing that people take this Musk guy seriously. Musk proves the fact that when you have say 300, 000 guys vying to be a success in the valley. At least a hundred will be at the right place at the right time. That is all Musk is.

[americanoutside]

Worth and actual cash are not the same. He should be made to pay out of spite just to break him for being a lying flake. He doesn't have the money.

[claybadger]

I love when Adrienne is on, she brings the knowledge of actual law to add to the fun!

[coosoorlog]

Can't help thinking Elon Musk's actual job is convinging the world rich people don't deserve their riches.

[Ianpact]

Thank you, Brett, Adrienne, and John.

[Deme]

John is absolutely right. The ramifications for Elon aren’t severe enough for that snowflake to even bat an eye.

[fractalign]

Like neither Musk or Twitter, I find this feud absolutely hilarious, I hope the fallout causes irreversible damage to both !
