  • @Tom_Het
    Elon Musk suing himself for buying Twitter is the only logical next step in this chain.
  • @JoeAuerbach
    "The Twitter board was stupid to take my lawsuit tantrum seriously" is a hell of a take.
  • @alex9033
    I gotta say, filing this lawsuit after firing Twitter's three most-senior lawyers (at minimum) is an interesting strategy.
  • @TravJam317
    Buying Twitter was the worst thing to happen to Elon Musk. But renaming one of the most popular brands in the world to just X afterward is even worse. What we've seen him do in the last month might be the fastest meltdown I can think of. This trainwreck is still going on and it's so interesting to watch it in real time.
  • @sushijones
    I somehow didn't realize that since Twitter was the entity forcing Elon to buy the company, the legal fees would stick with the company, and not its prior owners. That's extremely funny.
  • @Superdavo0001
    The fact he admits the initial lawsuit was nonsense while trying to justify his new lawsuit is just nuts
  • @HeartlesSv420
    Nothing says, "Twitter's better than ever!" quite like suing the ppl that made you go through with the offer that you yourself made. This is gonna be laughed out of court.
  • @jeffdonnelly7428
    When the very first Tesla was released, car critic Jeremy Clarkson was allowed to review it. Then, after letting him review their car, Tesla sued him for being critical.. Jeremy won. Then Tesla appealed and just kept going. Elon musk seems to have a pattern of using the legal system in very shady ways, this doesnโ€™t surprise me at all.
  • @Thereischeeseindeed
    watching Elon and Twitter decline is very fun in a 1789 French peasant kinda way
  • @schaddalton
    I will never grow tired of watching Elon cry about effectively tricking himself into vastly overpaying for Twitter.
  • @MindinViolet
    Iโ€™m no lawyer, but it seems to me that buying Twitter is kind of Elonโ€™s fault. I think Elon needs a bit more self-control, TBH.
  • @jamezday
    Elon Musk is that guy that tries to send his food back after eating 95% of it
  • @DanJuega
    Can you even scare a law firm with the threat of a law?
  • @silkroad9991
    Hey there, Legal Eagle! My comment is not about the video in particular, I just wanted to thank you. After dropping out of uni, and struggling to find a carreer path, your videos inspired me to try and take on a carreer as a lawyer, and today I have been accepted into one of the most prestigious law schools in my country (I'm not from the US of A, I'm from Europe, Hungrary to be precise). I just wanted to say thank you for igniting a passion and interest in me for civil and criminal law through your videos. Stay awesome!
  • @Makowh
    I'm an artist, and Musk saying that the litigation shouldn't have cost so much because it didn't involve any actual special skill nor exceptionnal law knowledge, is so typical of clients who absolutely have the budget to pay you, but just won't. It's the "my cousin could have done that for free" argument.
  • @nataliadeavilapires2136
    Suing the law firm you already lost 44billion too, that's a bold move Cotton, let's see how it works out for him.
  • @thegomillionairemindset6719
    When capitalism works for him he's a ruthless ,genius ,business man, but when he feels like he loses he complains and says the deal was unfair how can anyone believe this man is a genius
