Then you are free to indulge in your fantasies. The rest of us can just look at Twitter and see what it really implies.

How are you able to see what's going on at Twitter? Do you work there in a position where you have a decent overview of the company?
And sure, he might totally run Twitter into the ground. Like I said, I wouldn't put money into the company. But it's about where every other company he has run was, so I wouldn't bet against his success there either.
The idea that if he fails at making Twitter a success means he is an idiot and Tesla and SpaceX are a fluke are delusional though.

So Elon runs SpaceX, Tesla, and Twitter? I guess CEO is a part time job.

And Boring and that chip-brain company.

Considering that Tesla & SpaceX have been dependent on government subsidies or selling carbon credits, they are not really a success in their own right.

Both have been propped up.
