Even uglier than the whims of a two-year old, he may be motivated by advance knowledge of today's news by Tucker Carlson: Carlson is moving forward with his plans for a private streaming framework for his shows.
Effectively he's moving his show off Twitter. And fearing the coverage, I could see how Elon Musk wanted to find a similar figure to put in his place both to suppress the news of Carlson leaving, and to avoid the narrative of an "X-odus" spreading from big advertisers, to the prominent right-wing figures on X seen leaving.
It all comes down to ego, appearances, and power. All very ineptly wielded, since if your best hope is inviting Alex Jones to your platform, you definitely have to stop and think hard WTF you're doing wrong.
