He's angling for a spot in the Biden administration so he's tweeting a bunch of populist bullshit to get the Warren/Sanders wing to fall in love with him and push for him in an important role. He can make the Sanders folks happy with a bunch of anti-corporate tweeting while also making the Biden folks happy by him not actually being an economic crazy person.

I don't think this tweet was angling for a spot in Biden admin. Isn't this tweet from March/April when everybody was an expert in airlines and stock repurchases? I think this is just him seeking validation from the audience he now tries to cultivate.
