Over the weekend, Twitter owner Elon Musk released a poll asking whether he should step aside as the social media platform’s CEO or not. Users voted that yes, Musk should turn over the operations to someone else. 98.9 The Answer host Bruce Hooley has questioned whether that was Musk’s plan all along.
“I would have thought he would have won that poll with a resounding (no), but the leftist martialed their forces and the results came back 57% (yes) and 42% (no),” Hooley said. “There are two schools of thought on this: Is Elon Musk really allowing the inmates to run the asylum? The people who use Twitter to decide whether he gets to stay on as CEO.
“Or did Elon Musk already determine that he would step away from Twitter, return to Tesla, return to SpaceX, (and) stabilize the stock price because he has someone else in mind to be the CEO of Twitter. I gotta assume a brilliant guy like Elon Musk does not allow people who use Twitter — I can’t believe he’d put that out as a poll if he had not already prepared for the worst eventuality of the poll.”
Hooley continued by asking if Musk planned to install someone as Twitter’s new CEO that “would drive the left even crazier” than himself. The radio host then said he hopes Musk hasn’t “lost the stomach” for defending free speech after criticism levied against him since purchasing the platform.
