    Maybe he’s just really not good at running a social media company.

      His old business partner Peter Thiel failed to start up a rival to Twitter, so Musk came along and saddled Twitter with $13 bn of debt to kill it.

      Yeah man… It’s not what he’s saying that is losing him money… he’s just completely lost the ability to effectively run a company.

          He talked about electric cars. I don’t know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

          Then he talked about rockets. I don’t know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

          Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software & Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit I’ve ever heard anyone say, so when people say he’s a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.
