The tweet followed another message from Sunday, polling users whether he should step down as head of Twitter – garnering 57.5% votes in the affirmative.
Musk promised to abide by the poll results but was silent Monday and whether he planned to follow through with his pledge.
Musk has faced growing calls to step down as CEO from the company he acquired in late October for $44 billion.
Tesla shareholders have questioned whether he has been too distracted on Twitter as the stock price has plummeted in recent weeks. Shares of Tesla are down 35% since Musk took over Twitter, costing investors billions.
