Bored Billionaire Elon Musk On Verge of Buying Twitter, Users Say RIP To Social Media Platform
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: NurPhoto / Getty It looks like bootleg Tony Stark, aka Elon Musk, will indeed purchase Twitter, and depending on who you ask, this development is not being well received.
