One possible winner from the tariffs is Musk- Tesla has more localized supply chains than other US EV manufacturers. My Ford Mach-E was made in Mexico. One Canadian leader is advocating 100% tariffs on Teslas, the leading EVs in Canada. insideevs.com/news/749279/... - ThreadSky

Tariffs aren’t going to help Tesla because the brand is now trash thanks to Musk’s extracurricular activities this past year. The “awkward gesture” sealed its fate. Tesla had already steeply discounted its cars and still missed its earnings target by over 23% in Q4.

Trump just launched a trade war against Canada over fentanyl. The US seized - wait for it - 43 pounds at the US-Canada border last year.

Drug smuggling is a function of demand for the drugs. Having an Adderall addicted President and a Ketamine addict for the richest man in the world isn’t helping.

reply

robjj73.bsky.social•22 days ago

Here’s an idea:
Get some tax from Tesla.
Then employ more drug enforcement agency staff to stop the fentanyl.

Then perhaps consider you throw Musk out before he steals everything you have in America… including your constitution, liberty & everything you hold dear.

There is plenty of blame to go around. I singled out WW since it’s the group I’m most familiar with. I’ve watched the women who despise Trump remain silent around the men in their lives who support him. So, yes, my statement is based on my own observations and isn’t the least bit scientific. 😢

I’ve seen this in my own family. The wives or girlfriends of 2 of our sons. You know what is strange and what shuts them up?

💯 — threatening all closest trading partners/allies in North America and eventually the EU totally benefits Putin & China. Creating global economic disruption, threatening to throw Canada into recession and U.S. is chaos. Musk is the maniacal puppeteer.
