Majority Says ‘Yes’ – Musk Faces Exit Threat

When the poll closed 20 minutes later at 11.20pm, a whopping 57.5% of voters told Musk to pack his bags. The billionaire bought the platform last October for a cool $44 billion, but his reign has been rocky.

Musk’s Warning & Twitter Woes

As the ‘yes’ votes climbed, Musk cryptically warned, “Be careful what you wish for, because you may get it.” He chimed in on user comments, noting the challenge isn’t just about finding a new CEO but “finding a CEO who can keep Twitter alive.”

“No one wants the job of keeping Twitter alive,” Musk said. “There is no heir.”

What Happens Next?

Whether Musk will actually step down remains a mystery. The drama continues as Twitter waits to see if its controversial boss will finally hand over the reins.
