    Does that mean he is ignoring the vote that already took place?

    Trump is now bemoaning a lost opportunity.

    "We should have declared that only people wearing MAGA hats can have their vote counted."

    There is always an angle with him. I am certain he wants out, because Tesla shareholders are getting pissed off by the antics. The problem is that Musk is into Twitter for tens of billions of dollars, and it's an unfixable situation at that valuation, so it's not as simple as just hiring a professional who will make things work.

    The third largest shareholder of Tesla, Leo Koguan, who owns $3.6 billion in the stock, has been agitating to remove Musk as CEO of Tesla, saying that he has abandoned the company. Koguan was particularly pissed off on the latest sale of stock by Musk, who keeps selling billions of dollars worth of the stock and then saying "That is it! I am not going to sell anymore," only to do it all over again. I don't think it is a coincidence that Musk did that poll while Koguan was piping up about his displeasure, and other shareholders have been saying that the BOD of Tesla needs to be overhauled because they are not governing Musk. He's trying to lay the seeds for something, but as is often the case with him, I don't the bullshit all that well sometimes. It's related, though.

    Whether these sorts of misadventures are seen as clueless flailing or mysterious inspired fourth-dimensional chess often depends on the amount of money held by the bumbler.

    And, especially this time of year, we should remember that, “Bumbles bounce!”

    There is no tangible way to tell how the repeated selloffs are affecting the stock's value, I imagine? Because if I owned $3.6 billion of Tesla stock that was worth $7 billion earlier this year, I'd be pissed.

    Were all of the Twitter accounts showing him at the World Cup suspended for sharing assassination coordinates?
