"We're also hearing reports that he may personally serve as CEO or at least a limited position, for a limited time in order to right the ship. We're also seeing, and Axios has the headline that more broadly, corporate America is lawyering up, they're switching their lobbyists, they're going to those firms that have ties with conservatives because they know that the house is about to switch," said Posobiec.
Posobiec asked Emmons, "there is this idea that Elon Musk might be able to change Twitter and save free speech, as we know it, on the internet. Should we be putting all of our eggs in the Elon Musk basket? Can we trust him to do this? Or is he really going to get up there and make grandiose statements and not really deliver?
Emmons called the situation "interesting" and said that there's a large number of conservatives excited for Musk's takeover and potential to overturn high-profile bans.
"I think that could be really interesting, it could open the platform up again to be more of a bastion of free discourse. That would be great."
"As far as trust, I don't know if 'trust' is a word I'll use with massive social media entities," Emmons said, noting the lack of morals that large entities have.
Posobiec agreed, adding that while he's not a Musk fanboy, he would congratulate the mogul if he was able to right the ship.
Posobiec added SpaceX and StarLink were companies that needed to be run with the "Ascent of the federal government in many cases."
"They have the ability to put a lot of pressure, a lot of squeeze on him. You saw this last week... That they were potentially considering a national security review of his businesses based on his acquisition of Twitter. It's almost like they floated that balloon as a shot across the bow, a 'hey man, just pay attention, we're the ones who sign your cheques, and don't forget it."
