Musk had previously acquired Twitter with the intention of making it a super-app. He had announced his grand vision for the application. However, even his staunchest supporters were not able to stand behind his actions. The tweet came after a majority (57%) of Elon Musk’s 122 million followers said he should step down. Interestingly, the $155.8 billion business magnet and Tesla CEO also commented on the tweet put out by Mr. Beast, possibly in jest.

However, Musk has also said he would gladly love to resign if he ever found someone foolish enough to take the job, indicating his anger and hurt after being outvoted by his own followers. After a personality as prominent as Brady liked Mr. Beast’s tweet, the billionaire might be hurt even more. This is not the first time Brady has done something foolhardy with his Twitter account. Previously in the year, Brady had messed up with his profile picture in relation to the FTX scam as well.

Earlier this year, Brady and his ex-wife, Gisele, had been caught in the scandal of a crypto-app, FTX. The quarterback had initially done multiple advertisements and had even gone on to change his Twitter profile picture in support of the application. The profile picture had laser eyes, indicating his support for the crypto movement. However, after the FTX crash, he faced a lot of backlash for the laser eyes profile picture.
