> The Delaware Court of Chancery says Twitter can proceed with a limited probe to figure out whether whistleblower Peiter “Mudge” Zatko contacted billionaire Elon Musk’s lawyers before he backed out of the deal. The decision was released shortly before Musk reportedly asked to close the deal on its original terms.
There is no negotiating, he agreed to buy it at $54.20
Twitter and the Delaware courts were going to seize his assets if necessary to complete the funding, but Musk was going to own Twitter whether or not he still wanted it.

He has already proven that any offer he makes is really just another negotiating tactic.
Musk is working real hard to be the new Trump --- his word is his bond --- in Bizarro World.

LOL!
Yes --- exactly as he agreed to do before.
But he didn't do it then --- and there is no guarantee he will do it after this latest offer either. And if he doesn't?
As I said, it is nothing more than an open invitation to stop the lawsuit and go back to negotiating. Let's see if Twitter takes the bait.
