    It’s the reason Musk bought it in the first place, the Saudis couldn’t buy the conversation to kill it, so they found a patsy who would. The value that Twitter, has, and will lose, the eventual bankruptcy of the corporation, the 40 Billion mean nothing to either Musk or the Saudis, a pittance, not even worth considering.

      Can he get jail time for this? Everything that happened with this happened in 2014-2015 when Dorsey was in charge not in the last year.
