New X owner soon? Mark Cuban wants to buy twitter/X from Elon Musk—internet demands ‘bring back the bird!’

Mark Cuban, one of the main ‘sharks’ from the ABC reality television series Shark Tank, just dropped a bombshell that’s got people on social media talking. He’s revealed that he has got his eyes on buying X/Twitter from Elon Musk, and the internet is having a field day with the news.

 

In a recent chat with Wired’s Lauren Goode, 66-year-old tech mogul Mark Cuban said he’d love to buy Fox News and X (formerly Twitter) if he had the money.

 

“If I had enough money, I’d buy it in a heartbeat,” Cuban joked, though he admits he doesn’t have the funds right now.

 

Cuban, a regular user of X, has been vocal about his dislike for the changes Elon Musk has made to the platform.

 

“I wish I could [buy X]. There’s no reason for him [Musk] to sell it,” Cuban told Business Insider.

 

How did people react?

 

The buzz around Mark Cuban’s desire to buy X has set social media buzzing.

 

Reactions have been all over the place—some folks are practically begging for the return of the old Twitter days with comments like, “TAKE ME BACK” and “IDC who buys it, JUST BRING THE BIRD BACK!”

 

One even said, “Please, buy it from him! We’re so tired of Elon!”

 

But not everyone is convinced it’s a realistic dream.

 

Some are pointing out the harsh financial reality with comments like, “Ridiculous, his net worth is 5 billion and half of that of the basketball team. Elon’s Tesla bonus was over 50 billion Cuban, which is pocket change to Elon.”

 

According to Forbes, Cuban’s net worth is $5.7 billion, and as one person wisely noted, “He’s $39 billion short. He can’t afford X!”

 

Looks like Cuban’s plan might need a bit more than wishful thinking.
