Clearly, CNN contributor Cari Champion underestimates Elon Musk’s capabilities, suggesting that he might attempt to purchase MSNBC but claiming, “it just can’t happen.”
Such dismissive attitudes are typical of liberal media figures who fear the influence of successful conservatives like Musk. Champion confidently argued that there is no feasible way for Musk to acquire the outlet.
“I’ve actually decided to take a rest of peace [from X] because it is not a peaceful place for me,” she remarked, perhaps highlighting her discomfort with platforms where free speech reigns. Champion went on to say, “I wouldn’t be surprised if there was an actual bid made to take on MSNBC, but the fact that… it just can’t happen in real life…”

That sounds like a challenge, @elonmusk.
Champion argued that there is no way Musk would be able to buy the outlet.

It’s ironic she says that because I’d be willing to bet cash money that she would have said the exact same thing about Twitter a few years ago. Buying MSNBC would be chump change to Musk, and I wouldn’t put it past him to buy it just to spite the naysayers.
Even if he doesn’t buy it, it’s quite comical to watch him troll the snowflakes by posting memes suggesting that he is interested in a media take-over. For example, Musk shared a meme of a priest walking by a provocative woman, trying not to fall into temptation. The caption labels the woman as “MSNBC” and the priest as “Elon Musk trying not to buy.”
He wrote, “And lead us not into temptation….”

HA! What do you think? Will he buy the network or just continue to troll the left with the possibility of it?
