Seriously though. If you want mentorship, who better than the person who raised a large company into the worlds richest. If for no other reason to get advice on how to steady the ship.

If Elon tones down his rhetoric, resets Twitter to be what it can be, then the $’s will come.

Did anyone from Apple confirm this actual meeting? If not, this headline is misleading.

I see there is a huge anti musk following on here. For people who are worried that Musk will spread misinformation, weird how those people have no problem spreading misinformation about him! Why isn't MAC RUMOURS do anything, cry cry and whine!!!

Honestly, I'll hate Musk when he gives me a reason. Right now the only person I hate is Tim Cook and is love of Dongles. His Cook's obsession with Dongles has definitely caused me more headaches than Musk!

Agree with you but I don't think Elon is going to slow down. Elon loves the attention and loves being in the media. Elon looks at Tim Cook as his competitor. That's his competition.

Pretty sure they talked about the Twitter App Store dispute. Apple is not going to back down. They don't need Twitter.
Twitter needs Apple.

Sometimes I wonder what would Elon Musk would do if Tim Cook makes Elon Musk a CEO for Apple for one day.
The answer lies in his first day at Twitter as CEO. Sack everything that moves and walk into Apple Park with a kitchen sink.

Even Tim would be made redundant in one day. No wonder why Tim used the F-word way back in 2016. Cause Tim worked that out a long time ago.

Could you imagine how much time the lawyers and Cook spent making sure that Musk understands that nothing spoken about during the meeting gets leaked to the media so Musk's childish brain can understand that?

It’s true.

Hopefully a few words, or at least "don’t burn the place down" might stick. As someone said. Twitter needs Apple more than Apple needs Twitter.

I really want to know, did Elon reach out to Tim, or Tim summon Elon.

He hasn't done s***. Advertisers stopped their campaigns because activist groups threatened them. Nothing actually has changed there
Elon tweeted

Musk tweeted on Tuesday that “a large coalition of political/social activist groups agreed not to try to kill Twitter by starving us of advertising revenue if I agreed to this condition. They broke the deal.”

It doesn’t make it true. The heads of those activist groups emphatically deny it.

I said that. See post below, please.


It seems like Elon Musk reached out to Tim Cook. He has been reaching out to all the execs who have stopped advertising on Twitter. Elon is losing money and the banks and investors are not happy. I'm sure Tim Cook was included in the memo.
