Elon Musk Breaks Silence After Twitter Users Vote for His Resignation

Elon Musk Breaks Silence After Twitter Users Vote for His Resignation

Elon Musk sheepishly returned to Twitter Monday evening after a fairly quiet day, having spent most of the previous 24 hours in silence after creating a poll in which users voted for him to resign as CEO of the company.

Musk had not released a public statement per se, but began his return by engaging with convicted fraudster Kim Dotcom.

The internet personality had floated a baseless claim that the so-called “deep state” rigged the Twitter poll. Tweeting at @ElonMusk directly, DotCom claimed the U.S. government runs the “biggest bot army on Twitter” and offered the billionaire some advice: “let’s clean up and then run this poll again.” Musk simply commented: “Interesting.”

Lesson Musk learned: Perhaps, only paid subscribers should be allowed to vote in Twitter polls.
