    Elon really hoping that he can skate by without legal consequences as long as he just pretends he didn’t actually bribe voters.

      Think about it though, he didn’t pay them. He can easily spin a story about how he was ‘caught up in the moment’ and made an offer without thinking, that he was later advised would be illegal.

      Idk, I feel like I’ve seen crazier legal turnarounds in my lifetime. Imagine he references the purchase of Twitter as a pattern of behavior making offers that he isn’t actually prepared to fulfill?
