I expect it to turn into a cesspit that no-one will want to use. To maximize usage, algorithms pander to maximum trolling and outrage.
Musk has also decided that Democrats aren't his friends any more, and is betting on the Republicans to be more friendly to his businesses. Owning Twitter and making it right-wing friendly can help ingratiate himself with this group.
Elon can get things done, and he is smart. He is also self-centered and delusional. Starship will suddenly make us a multi-planetary species? Delusional. Tesla will save the planet from global warming? Delusional. A free-speech Twitter will save democracy? Delusional.
But at least he can afford to buy a round of drinks....
