That's not partisan at all. Follow unusualwhales on X. Both parties do this all the time. It's disgusting.

It seems like a sale of that much would involve lawyers, accountants, advisors…

Elon seems like a person who’d be hard to talk down from a bad idea

spinner

Jun 6, 7:57pm

Maybe you are thinking of Trump? Elon is arguably the most successful

chismoso

You’re right, you’ve convinced me. He’s infallible

spinner

Jun 6, 8:27pm

So dramatic. Another trait you have in common with Trump

chismoso

If he doesn’t have to surrender the profits then maybe he’s a genius

Obviously there’s a lot of “ifs” here still tbd

He has no bad ideas, just ingenious ideas feeble neanderthals can't comprehend.

People in his position as heads of companies have to fill out tons of forms

Well, not exactly. It can happen quickly. Not months.

Just going off the little details mention, it sounds like shareholder activism.

Maybe now but it wasn’t that way when Martha Stewart sold hers
