So by what mechanism did Musk borrow a ton of money, use it to buy Twitter, and then *transfer his debt to Twitter*?

This seems like a thing that shouldn't work.

Presumably I'm just naive.

@ceoln We're just not brilliant enough to understand the brilliant workings of such a brilliant mind. Oops. Did I say "brilliant"? I mean to say evil and corrupt.

Can I borrow a ton of money, buy I dunno Lockheed-Martin, transfer the debt to Lockheed-Martin, and then have it declare Chapter 7 bankruptcy?

If so, I have some interesting ideas for activism... :)
