You know its funny that you mention this through a political lens because the entire time I've been watching this narrative play out, this is the exact reason that I think Elon made his play. The value in twitter would be in delivering it to the 2024 R assumed candidate. If you can't hold the office, control the office.

I've speculated that the J6 committee might actually be the origin of Elons cold feet. Maybe he sees the assumed candidates position as far more tenuous than he previously thought, and thus the value of the platform is decreased as well. Maybe Elon sees charges coming for the assumed and in his calculus, this lowers the valuation.

But is there a 46 billion USD value in getting Trump (I'm assuming you're referencing him) back on Twitter? He lost his last candidacy while still having a Twitter and Facebook account, I don't think just restoring his account will be enough to tip the scales in his favor.

I mean that's the question right?

46B to control the POTUS? Or at least be his golden child?

Also 3 months ago I would have given the election to the prior. Things are more mixed now. But if Musk delivers him Twitter? All bets are off.
