Bunch of former top dogs who were sacked trying to damage Elon.
Sour grapes stuff. Don't forget that Twitter was losing money before Elon. These clowns would have been happy to stay there and make the big bucks and watch the company bleed dollars as long as they could.
You’re looking at this “bleeding money” thing the wrong way. As a public company twitter was able to raise capital if needed with stock. As a matter of fact twitter had over $6B in cash and only $3.5B in debt only a few months ago. That’s right side up. Musk put twitter upside down to the tune of $12B right now with financing of $1B per year.
I get you’re going to be like but, but, but… but the truth is twitter was very much solvent when Musk bought it.
I see. Things were groovy because they could just sell off more of the company to float the boat. Ahh, okay.
Anyway. My point is that - Elon's dilemma being fully noted- nevertheless the senior management sour grapes crew that just got moved out are not necessarily the most objective source of commentary.
Anyone can sign up and pay 8 bucks for a verified account now under Musk. Have you been missing out on all the malarkey going on? Some examples:
