In a notion that is sure to torment its liberal journalists, MAGA darling Elon Musk is flirting with the idea of buying MSNBC.
The network has been spun off by owner Comcast in the latest sign of trouble after a dire year of plunging ratings and hysterical performances from anchors.
While it’s not for sale, the idea that it could change hands is being widely speculated over.
The blood in the water at MSNBC set Donald Trump Jr’s tongue wagging on Friday. He joked on X: “Hey Elon Musk… I have the funniest idea ever!”
He was responding to a post that incorrectly claimed the network is already up for sale.
Musk, who launched a hostile takeover for Twitter and won, took the bait.
“How much?” he replied in his own post.
It was the same question he asked in 2017 when a Twitter user urged him to buy the site. Four years later he purchased the platform for $44billion and rebranded it as X.
