I'd argue his followers are his greatest chance at profit. Many people despise him and have been closing their twitter accounts. So despite it still being twitter brand and established users, they don't like Elon so they don't want to support the platform.

So let's say we're being generous and say Elon has 10M hardcore followers.

So $44B/10M = $4.4k per follower on Twitter. If he can sell each of those a Tesla it might be fine.

I'm beginning to hear the term "Muskmobile" bandied about in not a good way though. Consumer Reports is reporting a ton of reliability problems as Tesla scales up [1]. And Ford/GM is not far behind in their electric offerings either.

Elon reported on Nov 7 that Twitter usage was at an all time high. Do you believe that is dishonest? Or do you believe this uptick will be short-lived?

I’d be surprised if usage didn’t spike with the elections going on.
