Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter created a new discussion for the general American town hall, which is the approval, or disapproval, of the Tesla CEO’s control over the forum.
An exclusive Fox News poll provided to OutKick surveyed Americans as recently as May 1 on the significance, and approval, of Musk’s acquisition of Twitter.
The poll asked voters if the $44 billion takeover of the platform was considered a big deal.

I hope. Personally hope Elon Musk turns Twitter into right wing conservative sites like Parlor and Gab… Let’s expose all of the Very Fine People on the right
We all know there are plenty of nut jobs on the far left and far right. What we really need are more people that can meet somewhere in the middle and have logical, common sense discussions with the ability to actually listen to other people and their points of view. More understanding and less finger pointing.
How about start with opening up discussions without fear of being canceled for supporting the wrong position? Overlords at the Twit factory have been deciding the conversation for the last 4 years. Kinda like what you are just did. Don’t you have any sand to pound?
Fo shizzle
You do more for the cause of conservatives than anyone else. Its the progressive gift that keeps on giving
And Elon Musk is my favorite African American who was actually born in Africa unlike all the fist raising woke phony darkies in this country lol
Salty with the kill shot! Truth!
