That would have been true, if he had been working towards closing in a good-faith way instead of claiming repeatedly to have canceled the deal and fighting it in court.

The level of narcissism here is astounding. The notion you can step in on day one to a complex deal and immediately know all the proceedings is psychotic.

I guess I was fooled by the exact wording you used like the parent poster. Was there any particular reason for that?

Honestly: snarkiness. Not a particularly high quality post, I admit, but it is a bit grating to see people being very reactionary in all the Twitter-related threads.

This is not the kind of discourse anyone wants to see on HN.

Do you mean calling people psychotic?

Which is why he tried to cut and run I imagine.
