There was no plan. Elon instantly regretted the deal. He spent months trash talking Twitter. Twitter's board would have been sued 7 ways to Sunday had they let Elon off the hook. Then he suddenly got the idea that he could flip Twitter for less than the cost of a settlement. Wrong as it turns out. The idea that he would drive it bankrupt intentionally is absurd. His creditors would end up owning it. Musk and other equity investors would be wiped out. That could trigger more conditions on his margin debt. It's all as bad and chaotic as it appears to be.
