Elon Musk bestows social platforms with his thoughts on society, business, and of course Space. His Twitter account supplies a constant slurry of sometimes “questionable” opinions. One of his Twitter posts from four years back has caused a lot of commotion. Back in 2018, Elon tweeted about taking Tesla private and informed the public that he even had funding secured.
