Why Did Elon Musk Purchase Twitter?

 Elon Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion USD on April 25th, 2022. Musk, the CEO of Tesla and the world's richest man, plans to take Twitter private and has stated that he wants Twitter to adhere more closely to the ideas of freedom of speech and free expression, which he called "the bedrock of a functioning democracy" (In the same statement, he described Twitter as the "digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated.")

Why Elon Musk bought Twitter?

I'm guessing it's because he has some serious political and social convictions about how Twitter should be governed, and he doesn't think it is. I also believe he enjoys and benefits from tweeting and would like it to be tailored to his needs. His company's value is enhanced by this status as a curious public figure on Twitter, so he definitely sees a lot of value in tweeting and likely wants to acquire it.
