      Him buying twitter was just some sort of narcissistic flex on his daughter.

        luckily, he has minimal influence over SpaceX, and only really provide high level direction. Same with Tesla.

        Twitter, though… the turnaround time on his whims is staggering

          Considering the fuckupery at Tesla (especially as of late), this may not entirely be true. It seems that he has slightly more influence at Tesla than he does at SpaceX, which has been doing a pretty great job.
