Elon Musk, the chief executive officer of Tesla, talked about Twitter’s bot problem, his plans related to SpaceX, Giga Texas, and the President during the All-In podcast on Monday.

A lot of discussions have been going on related to Musk’s $44 billion bid to buy Twitter.

“You can't pay the same price for something that is much worse than they claimed,” Musk said. He also pointed out that purchasing Twitter at a lower price was “not out of the question”.

He argued that his concerns grew as he asked more questions about the company’s spam accounts.

According to Musk, he wants to buy a company that can be fixed within a “reasonable timeframe and without revenues collapsing along the way”.

While talking to the podcast hosts Chamath, Jason, Sacks, and Friedberg Musk went after President Biden and said, “The real president is whoever controls the teleprompter”.

He claimed that there were many people in the Trump administration besides the former President himself, who were effective in getting things done unlike the present one.
