He'd love to also milk it financially, but that's actually really hard to do with Twitter.

You could say though as a capitalist he also gets a return on investment by manipulating public opinion in favour of conservatism.

I don't think he even cares that much about money, except that it's useful/needed for the things he wants to accomplish.

Unfortunately, the things he wants have gotten steadily shittier and shittier and more disgusting over the last 15 years.
