Musk\u2019s best and final offer was to pay $54.20 per share for 100% of Twitter, and said that if his offer was not accepted he\u2019d have to reconsider his position as a shareholder, according to an SEC filing.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Well, that puts the shareholder in an interesting pickle. If they turn down Musk&#8217;s offer and he sells his stake, the share price will drop significantly. Twitter has never really done all that well in the markets and this could cause a potential run for the doors as institutional and individual investors head for the door.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/43\/26\/fe\/4326fead9c6e94084d7636ad2993cc9e.jpg?resize=316%2C221&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"316\" height=\"221\" \/><\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if Musk&#8217;s offer is accepted, all the little twitlers that work at Twitter will see their safe space go bye bye bye. Elon Musk will, of course, fire the current CEO and closet totalitarian and put his own management staff in place. They will, no doubt, lay down the law to the twitlers who have been running rampant and suppressing the speech of people they don&#8217;t like.<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/9d\/b9\/b2\/9db9b250ecc6d06e64ac2fe9f008538e.jpg?resize=359%2C280&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"359\" height=\"280\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It will be a few days, probably well into next week before a response is made by the shareholders. I suspect that most of them will vote to take the offer and Twitter will be taken private. When that happens, we can expect this to occur as all the little twitlers find out that their &#8220;feewings&#8221; mean nothing to Musk&#8217;s management team.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kingsman Head Blown Scene\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/E1jf2hOkec4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The next few weeks should be very entertaining.<\/p>\n<p>Thatisall<\/p>\n<span id=\"post-ratings-37033\" class=\"post-ratings\" data-nonce=\"714b77dbd5\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_37033_1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"1 Star\" title=\"1 Star\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(37033, 1, '1 Star');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_37033_2\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"2 Stars\" title=\"2 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(37033, 2, '2 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_37033_3\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"3 Stars\" title=\"3 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(37033, 3, '3 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_37033_4\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"4 Stars\" title=\"4 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(37033, 4, '4 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"rating_37033_5\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/stars_crystal\/rating_on.gif?w=640&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"5 Stars\" title=\"5 Stars\" onmouseover=\"current_rating(37033, 5, '5 Stars');\" onmouseout=\"ratings_off(5, 0, 0);\" onclick=\"rate_post();\" onkeypress=\"rate_post();\" style=\"cursor: pointer; border: 0px;\" \/> (<strong>2<\/strong> votes, average: <strong>5.00<\/strong> out of 5)<br \/><span class=\"post-ratings-text\" id=\"ratings_37033_text\"><\/span><\/span><span id=\"post-ratings-37033-loading\" class=\"post-ratings-loading\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-postratings\/images\/loading.gif?resize=16%2C16&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" class=\"post-ratings-image\" \/>Loading...<\/span>\n<p><em><strong>~The Angry Webmaster~<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit0\";\namzn_assoc_search_bar = \"true\";\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"angersentral\";\namzn_assoc_search_bar_position = \"bottom\";\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"search\";\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\namzn_assoc_title = \"Shop Related Products\";\namzn_assoc_default_search_phrase = \"elon musk\";\namzn_assoc_default_category = \"All\";\namzn_assoc_linkid = \"07be68ca4f1f5567fd3ee6f10b6f95d7\";\namzn_assoc_rows = \"2\";\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good day all.
