In early April 2022, Elon Musk revealed that he purchased three billion dollars worth of shares of the popular social media platform. He quickly teased an edit button and other significant improvements for the future before eventually putting in an offer to purchase the company entirely. This offer enraged many users of the platform. However, Jake Paul revealed his support for the Tesla founder to purchase Twitter just minutes before the company announced a definitive agreement.

Amouranth and Andrew Schulz, are among those who have supported Elon\u2019s involvement in the company. On April 17, Joe Rogan also explained that he believes Musk\u2019s desire to buy Twitter is motivated because he \u201ccares\u201d about freedom of speech. \u201cI think he does care. He does. Genuinely,\u201d said Rogan. \u201cHe\u2019s concerned about censorship. He said freedom of speech is someone you don\u2019t like saying something you don\u2019t want to hear. He goes, they have to have that right. It\u2019s essential to democracy.\u201d Elon Musk buys Twitter Less than an hour after Jake Paul posted his tweet, it was revealed by PRNewswire that the Tesla Founder and Twitter have come to a definitive agreement for Musk to purchase the company. After the deal closes, existing shareholders will receive $54.20 per share that they hold. This amount is based on the share value at the time Elon revealed his 9% investment into the company on April 1. It\u2019s unknown if anything will change on the platform after the deal is made official, so we\u2019ll have to wait until then to see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jake Paul supports Elon Musk\u2019s takeover of \u201ccorrupt\u201d Twitter Jake Paul\/YouTube: TeslaYouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul has revealed his support for Elon Musk\u2019s purchase of Twitter, a deal that was recently finalized after weeks of deliberation.
