Looks like someone has been watching too much.

It's the impression one gets from reports, like this one from Fortune magazine, that Musk could pursue a hostile takeover of Twitter after declining to join the social media giant's board of directors.

It’s Possible

This is not the first theory about Musk buying a piece of the social network, but it does have legal credibility.

Fans of the rich people family drama know that major stakeholders can take the company over in a hostile takeover if they want to.

The door is open for a hostile takeover because Musk didn't join the board.

There isn't much in the way of indication that Musk will do anything like that.

Musk turned down the seat on the board on the day it was supposed to take effect. He said that the CEO of the company would have to pass a background check.
