GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen is never going to buy eBay. That’s in large part because it’s not for sale and he doesn’t have a fraction of the money necessary to buy it. But that hasn’t stopped the tiresome mini-Musk from declaring he’ll buy it anyway. So much so that in June, the former pet food salesman declared he was abandoning his prospects for a $35 billion bonus in order to focus on the delusional goal of buying the online marketplace. Now, according to Bloomberg, Cohen is “considering withdrawing” from the $56 billion bid.
