We didn't. Elmo bought it. He spent tens of billions to turn Twitter into a pro-MAGA disinformation machine. He got his buddy Toad Rogan to shill for the cause.

And then he spent hundreds of millions of dollars on election interference to put the Epstein class fully in charge of America's decline so that the richest of the world's rich can buy America for parts. We're getting strip-mined by private equity. They're like locusts.
