How much to buy twitter? If I was rich enough, I’d buy it and shut twitter down! No warning at all.

I mean.. technically you'd only have to buy 51% of Twitter. Then just have fun.

According to this article from 2017, Twitter was worth just around $12 billion.

That’s around $6 billion for a 51% share, and Twitter stocks are quite a bit lower than they were in 2017. So hypothetically, Trump might be able to buy Twitter if he wanted.

Shutting it down is the only "legal" way of firing everyone that works there.

If the new owner just came in and said "you're all fired", there's be wrongful termination lawsuits all up and down the west coast.

Buy it outright, take it private, and shut it down; or buy a controlling interest in it, leave it public, but sabotage it from inside.

Because so long as the Leftist employees are still there, you don't REALLY have control of it.

Wasting billions of dollars, and people would just move to another platform. Better just get rid of the left bias

Xir, this is all hypothetical. It’s a joke. Calm down, your reddit is showing. It would be my money anyways. The fuck would you care what I did with my money? Are you a commie? Sheesh.
