First Twitter, now MSNBC?
On Sunday, November 24, Elon Musk, 53, uploaded a photoshopped image of himself, Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and RFK Jr. eating McDonald’s in the MSNBC studio after threatening to purchase the news network.
The image of the four conservatives was originally taken last week inside a private jet.
Musk’s silly post came after he has been toying with the idea of purchasing MSNBC after headlines revealed Comcast will sell the outlet.
“Now MSNBC is going down,” Musk penned on Thursday, November 21.
One day later, Don Jr. shared the news of MSNBC’s impending sale and tagged Musk, writing, “Hey @elonmusk I have the funniest idea ever!!!”
The father-of-12 further entertained the possibility, adding, “How much does it cost?”
Don Jr. joked, “I mean it can’t be much. Look at the ratings.”
Musk then shared Don Jr.’s tweet with his followers and wrote, “The most entertaining outcome, especially if ironic, is most likely.”
After chatter spread that Musk might add another company to his portfolio, famous podcaster Joe Rogan told Musk, "If you buy MSNBC I would like Rachel Maddow's job. I will wear the same outfit and glasses, and I will tell the same lies."
