It’s official, the media does NOT know what to do with Elon Musk. Which makes this all even more perfect.
And fun.
Look at this silliness from the Wall Street Journal:
I have friends, they have acquaintances, you have a shadow crew of misfits egging you on. pic.twitter.com/aAUw2PTyD1

It’s a super SECRET crew of billionaires and misfits …
Oooh, we want one! Because of course, Elon couldn’t be acting on his own.
Who ARE these people?
Elon Musk’s response is prefect:
My Shadrow Crew is sickkk!
Also, who are they again?— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 2, 2022
HA!
Sell Shadow Crew merch to buy Twitter?
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 2, 2022
We’d buy a hoodie.
True story.
I'll buy a tshirt

I'm not typically a kiss up like this… but can I be part of the Shadow Crew? Do you have cool team tshirts?

I’m your huckleberry for Captain General commanding the Midwest Misfit division. You won’t regret it. I’ll make you proud!

I’m surprised that leftists haven’t taken you to task for using the letter K three times in “sikkk.” It’s a secret code for “white supremacy.” Just like the “okay” hand gesture. pic.twitter.com/n0sR85TYNn

Oh, we’re sure they’ll see the ‘kkk’ at the end of sick and accuse him of white supremacy any minute now.
I think I saw Shadow Crew open for Guns N’ Roses in ‘89.

DA DA DAAAAAA!
First rule of Shadow Crew is: You don't talk about Shadow Crew. Shhhh
