01. after Elon Musk sealed the 44 billion dollar deal to buy Twitter earlier this week users on the platform have been seeing swings in their following accounts so the flood of prominent users with that little blue check mark have come forward claiming that they've lost thousands of followers overnight however a number of conservative and right-wing accounts actually gained followers according to the social media analytics tracker social blade conservatives like Ted Cruz and Laura Ingram gained followers and Marjorie Taylor green the Georgia congresswoman whose personal Twitter account was suspended even saw her official government Twitter account gained over 41 000 new followers last night alone so joining me now talk more about why this is happening is social media and financial analyst Kevin paffrath Kevin what's up with the brown hair buddy I know I gotta bring the green and pink back what is this yeah really we're seeing lots of Green from Eli on must these days so I mean you're the expert you know better than anybody I've seen you manage here I follow you on Instagram but I mean you truly have your thumb on the pulse of social media so what do you make of these moves on Twitter yeah absolutely so there are two things that could be going on here first it does seem odd that certain Democrats like Kamala Harris and AOC who usually gain followers every day are losing followers right in super vocal Republicans are all of a sudden gaining a lot more followers than usual really weird so there are two potential explanations one it could be organic it could mean that further left Democrats who are very vocal supportive uh progressives of people like AOC are bailing out of the platform deleting their accounts in other words just leaving so we see those losses at the same time Republicans are getting a lot of attention since Republicans are cheering the return of free speech and potentially even Donald Trump to Twitter so you could see a surge of new Republicans or even old Republicans coming back following the new vocal voices like Ron DeSantis after the Walt Disney drama that made him trending almost daily for about a week now the second is a little bit more Sinister this is the potential suggested by the New York Post today and that's that Twitter just straight up hates Republicans so much that they have these long-lasting down voting algorithm blocks against these Republicans and now because Elon Musk is coming in they're quickly removing them to prevent getting exposed when Elon comes in so maybe it's one maybe it's two maybe it's a combination of both wow that is a pretty interesting uh insight for you right there what do you think is going to happen to Twitter because I know the state government takes six months but we're already seeing some waves I even saw that Twitter they locked down any changes that they can make to the platform because they were worried about some employees maybe doing something or changing something because they were upset about the Elon Musk idea oh it's super possible I mean there are people in tears the New York Times was doing uh uh private interviews uh unnamed interviews with Twitter employees some of them are asking for alcohol at work now some of them just want to quit some of them are just crying over the fact that elon's coming and some seem to cheer it uh so you've got this really weird dichotomy at Twitter and yeah the last thing they want is one person going rogue doing something crazy on the platform reducing the value of the company because something breaks and millions of people leave the platform for example that would be bad for the deal and shareholders but I do think what you asked is really wise and that is what's the future right and the future is elon's coming we're going to get transparent algorithms and no matter whether the New York Post is right or whether it's organic the future should be much more transparent for everyone in a future to look forward to I'm very excited yeah I was going to say isn't that a good thing and I mean look at the guy we're talking about he's got the Midas touch so if I were an employee under his I'd at least be pretty confident those checks were going to clear absolutely and look there's always going to be vocal opposition we just had a non-profit that just hates wealthy a rich white guys come out and demand that the FTC and FCC shut down this Twitter deal to which the Ft uh the FCC Federal Communications Commission has already responded and said this is ridiculous we're not even going to respond to these absurd arguments or we're not going to intervene and shut this deal down this is a good thing yeah what do you think is going to happen as far as the shareholders on Twitter and for that matter Elon musk's company because there's there's been a little uh shibby and shaking this week oh yeah no kidding so uh it's entirely possible that first of all for uh Twitter there's probably a 30 chance that the deal falls apart and if the deal falls apart the Stock's going back to like 35 36 dollars which is a real downside risk that could happen a move from the Biden Administration or uh Department of Justice anyone Anti-Trust litigation could freeze the steel would be really bad in terms of Tesla I think there's a really good chance that Elon Musk started dumping shares uh two days ago on the 26th we should know if that's true in about the next three hours we will know if Elon has started selling shares on the 26th because he's mandated to disclose that to the SEC within two days and they usually post that between 5 and 8 PM Pacific time so I got my email up I'm waiting for those alerts to see because I think he's dumping shares to finance his purchase of Twitter all right I'll be following your Twitter and your IG and see what happens because like I said you a lot of the times are my information Network so Kevin very good to see you tonight work on the hair come on this is just way too normal for you thank you very much all right thank you thank you
