Only because they realized it was actually fascist.
They prefer fascism.

Dunno, but it was at the end of the 2016 campaign that he *made* him one. After insulting Ted’s wife & talking shit about him in general, Ted still came around to phone bank for Trump in the final days before the vote.
It's hilarious watching people who bashed Musk for 10 years, grin and eat shit and pretend they didn't. I'm old enough to remember when Rs were terrified that a shadowy billionaire was secretly running the country but they seem to have forgotten that as well and welcome their billionaire overlords.
Imagine switching allegiances so effortlessly. First, they hated musk because Fox told them that electric cars were for betas and "there isn't enough electricity" and now they have to buy his shitty cars and pretend he's a genius or risk getting torn apart by maga.

It's enough to give one whiplash.
To be fair, the coolest option is rarely the most practical option. Though to be more fair, the coolest option is probably a Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato rather than a Model S.
The most obnoxious thing about this is how Trump just axed the program that would have put thousands of charge stations into service. I’m sure Tesla will happily fill in the gap with their own chargers 🫠
I actually used to own a pre-owned one till about 2 years ago when some redneck totaled it (thank god). Those cars are surprisingly expensive to maintain, insure, and they retain their value pretty well so the car tax is $1000/or +. So figure average MAGA lives in a place similar to this...good luck
I recognize that scenario. My late dad used that term quite often when efforts appeared to be futile. "Up Shit Creek without a paddle." As Chris Rock would say, Elon had better recognize.
There are ZERO Tesla showrooms in Alabama Alaska Arkansas
Idaho (only 1 in Idaho) Kansas Kentucky Louisiana (1) Maine
Mississippi (1) Montana Nebraska North Dakota South Dakota
West Virginia Wyoming
There are 68! showrooms in California.
yeah, we all know MAGA is big in CA and they love EV's
I can't wait to see Trump rallies full of redneck MAGA Tesla drivers, they will never understand, but it will be definitive proof they are just mindless drones happy to be told what to think, and more importantly what to hate.
I find it amusing that the same people who lost their whole damn minds when our government tried to push for greener driving options are now the people who are now treating Teslas like ‘patriot cars’.
I still need that #teslatakedown but if the pushback means more right wingers buy EVs…win-win.
I saw a trash can truck in the wild today for the first time. It does not look normal. It looked weird, and dumb, and not very functional as a truck. I'm convinced that at some point, circa grade 1, someone told Musk one of his drawings was cool, and he has clung to that every day since.
Hey now, Texas doesn't claim Tesla. And also speaking of someone who lives in Houston, they actually aren't that common. Like I'll see one on the road - but it's no where near the number of trucks or real cars.
I'm convinced most of them are in because they feel like they *have* to.
A family friend said that she feels like she has to vote republican because she "always has" even though she doesn't agree with them or like any of 'em. I told her she doesn't have to vote for them, but didn't seem to help.
All of these Republicans are gutless losers, but given the amount of shit that Cruz has had to eat over the years, he might be the most pathetic chud among all of them
What's REALLY hilarious is that Trump will absolutely not have paid a cent for it, even if he does keep it. This was all a cheap stunt from the slimiest car salesman of them all, and Trump will get a free car.
There are SO many willing to undertake...THAT...duty, that I thought Cruz is probably sticking with bootlicking. I mean, if everyone who COULD do that DID, Orange Foolius would never leave his desk, right?
The Tesla takedown is officially complete. Wanna know why Texans HATE seeing him at Astros games? Outside of his odious face
He’s an absolute jinx!
Bye Bye “Teslerrrrr”🤣
Cooler than returning to Texas in a snow storm after successfully escaping to the Caribbean and then being shamed into going back with your tail between your legs? I don’t think so. That whole thing must have been a much cooler experience. Bloody freezing in fact.
Tesla is tired and old. Have you driven one? Fit abnd finish is terrible. Tesla is no longer the biggest EV company in the world, Chinese BYD is. You know the company Buffet invested in and made a pant load on. And it is smashing Tesla in the Chinese market. Because their cars are the coolest.

I prefer the smell of petrol, over the smell of burnt plastic and battery fires.

Elon is to the Republicans what Trump is to America.
He actually got them to buy electric cars .
Problem for Tesla is only Nazis, losers and political sycophants want to buy them now because of who the CEO is!
I'm gonna guess NO.
It was a commonly used expression where I grew up.
I find it amusing an anachronism.
They’ll crush the domestic car industry, clearing the way for foreign automakers to take over the market.

I almost feel sorry for Leon.
Almost.
Too bad for Elmo that the Cybertruck turns out to be defective in design and manufacturing quality.
Maybe if Elmo did his job instead of fucking around with DOGE he could fix it.
Ted Cruz is so gross

this is proof cruz is just living in a different century.

I do not like him near nor far.
no pun intended. We need someone to add the next line of this poetic feed!
Haha no no I'm just joking y'all
Even if we can’t agree on policy, I’m begging them to at least elect a normie sounding dude every now and again. These dweebs are exhausting.
