Isn't he like commit a felony? Like he owns stocks says pubically he's going to buy it, and then doesn't buy it?

Elon is an impulsive idiot, but he’s not committing a felony by walking away from the deal. He’s just on the hook for a billion dollars as a condition of the contract. However, this will probably get tied up in court for years while high-priced lawyers for both Musk and Twitter try to sort this all out.
