Even if he steps down he still has total control of the company.

“It’s a private company”
“They can suspend whoever they want”
“Try reading the terms of service sometime”
“Learn to code”
“Maybe you should build your own twitter”


You opened Pandora's box and used terms like this to justify it. Don't complain. This wasn't a thing until you made it one. You were so confident it couldn't be used against you, just the people you don't like that you were all for it.

Lmao, he isn't going to step down.

[rhp_]

I remember when Twitter first showed up. My buddy signed up. I always thought it was kind of lame. Some things never change.

[thetroublemaker]

He wants to step down and is looking for a way to save face. He knows he’s in over his head.

[benscrwbiutb]

It’s ok if he steps down as long as company continues to expose democrat corruption in media and federal government agencies

[Chiikkka]

That’s a big fat lie that’s not what he said atall damn liers

[Africanknight]

This is what he wanted. He is already tied down with Teslas stock dropping and Space X, Starlink. This guy doesn’t sleep. He will just put a “like minded focal point” in the position who shares his point of view. 💯

I hope he doesn't step down, he hasn't sunk Twitter enough! I never thought I would say this... but I am cheering for Elon! *SINK IT!*

[EvidenceHub]

He's probably going to hand the keys to Mike Lindell 🤣

[blueconversechucks]

How can Elon be the smartest guy in the room when all his fanboys are the smartest guy in the room?

[ec]

Funny how quickly they report on this but not the misuse of it by the DOJ or FBI for the last 4 years... Interesting...

[PTS]

Hands keys of the castle to Trump…..

“Be careful what you wish for”

[frankblangeard]

He should poll shareholders of Tesla and ask if he should step down as CEO.

[jutru]

That’s hilarious.
He should ‘step down’?
It’s his company. If you don’t like it, stop using the service.
Get over it.

[jaideepdudani]

He has no experience to run this company! He has messed up Tesla now he is going to ruin Twitter

[hurry]

Elon should step down. Twitter is a waste of time for the people who use it and for Elon. He lacks the skills to manage it, he made a mistake when he bought for $44 billion and he compounded the mistake by trying to micro-manage it. Tesla lost 50% of its value (vs 19% for S&P 500), the stock was $400 in January and now it's $150, a loss of $500 billion in market value. The Twitter fiasco has cost Elon and his investors hundreds of billions, it's time for Elon to cut his losses and move on.
