Ryan Reynolds vs Elon Musk: Who are fans supporting?

Way before he bought Twitter, Musk was very active on the platform and won his fans’ hearts with his witty replies. But when it comes to a legendary comeback, he should be aware of the fact that it is almost impossible to beat Deadpool.

Reynolds not only chose a smart way to get back to Musk, but he also won his fans’ hearts with it. Additionally, it seems like his fans were waiting for his cue and now a new petition has begun on Twitter where fans are asking Reynolds to buy Twitter. Some even suggested that he should sue Tesla and then buy the platform.

A major reason behind these suggestions from the fans could be the fact that Reynolds recently sold his company, Mint Mobiles, for billions. His fans loved his concept and hence are suggesting him to do the same with Twitter.
