My guess is that he’s posted his holdings as collateral for his Twitter acquisition and propping up SpaceX, and selling TSLA would both dilute his control and trigger a massive taxable event.
These cars went from ‘wokemobiles’ to ‘gay’ to swastikars faster than 2.0 seconds. The right has no rudder. They all just follow whatever dear leader tells them is cool. But the strategy of worshipping big oil and spending 50 years fighting against the electric car is probably not irreversible.
"I don't need a license Officer. We're not driving...we're traveling! Only losers get insurance. Do you know who I am ? Get me your supervisor! Is there a McDonalds around here?!? "
The good news is that these things are known to catch fire and run out of control when in self driving mode.
I wonder if they can be hacked to target specific individuals?
A Real Corporate Board would have Kicked this clown out a long time ago. He been edgy for years... flamboyant Over promised never delivered claims. Since Twitter ...Tesla has been ignored.
My only consolation here is that the average red neck won’t buy cybertrucks. One, they can’t afford them. Two, they don’t have a place to put a flagpole to fly the great big flag out the back.
Maybe. Appearances are everything for some in the working class - who will spend more on a vehicle than home. $100k may not be within reach, especially during a recession.
His brother, the CEO and the entire board of Tesla cashed out stock. They all can read the writing on the wall. Musk is doing Trumps dirty deeds for him and the world is watching. His boss aligning with Russia did not help either.
Pathetic most of Fox News viewers can’t afford a Tesla personally Kelon needs to change the name to something else sort of defaced Tesla name buy his hate and lies
First KKKing DonOld pimps Tesla's on the WH lawn and now bun boy Hannity hawks them on Fox News...
America just took a few more steps down the proverbial rabbit hole..
JOIN THE PROTEST IN FRONT OF TESLA in Tucson, AZ
Sat. March 15, 9:30-11:00 am. Leave plenty of parking spaces near businesses. You can park across the street from First Watch at Fiesta Lanes (big blue bldg.) it is being renovated. We will have a drone recording the event. Expect media coverage.
I wonder (fascism) how it plays (fascism) to the US automakers (fascism) that the fascist White House lawn became (fascism) an infomercial (fascism) for a specific (fascism) oligar… oops, I mean (fascism) businessman…
They feel like that because that's exactly what they are: cheaply built and vastly over-priced. I guess that's why elmo has a penchant for the orange felon, same principle.
You got it. Funny how the model SS has in recent years been the lowest volume production vehicle they make. But the MAGA talking heads picking a losing strategy; I’m here for it.
No worries. Watch Trump make it mandatory for all Federal employees who need to order new cars to order Tesla unless there are specific needs a Tesla cannot meet.
Given the wildly contradictory messaging given by Bonespurs, itt's obviously a republican voter thing to live with the effects of severe cognitive dissonance as a matter of daily life, but this sudden love of electric vehicles should make some brains explode. It won't, but it should. Thick bastards.
It's not just Tesla. People have the power they just forget that. We can choose to spend our dollars on items that are not produced by immoral unethical groups of people or companies. This will undermine them and cause them to close down. The power has always been with the people.
They can even find a way for the government to pay for the cars considering all the grift going on and DOGE’s control over the government computers and finances
Is T going to order his cabinet and Rs in Congress to buy a Tesla. They copy T’s suit and tie. Why not all drive the same car too? what’s $40,000 among friends, to stay in power?
Won’t matter if it’s free bc they won’t be able to afford the insurance anyway; aside from the previous problems it’s now the brand at highest risk for vandalization..
We are out here standing in line for Costco to open to buy eggs for almost $1/egg; we are out here boycotting Amazon for a full week; we are out here rooting for Luigi…and they think we will listen to them and buy a Tesla?
Yes, every single right wing influencer should be among the first guinea pigs to test Tesla self driving cars…. In fact, if they aren’t, they’re obviously woke…...
Next will be an hour long infomercial type broadcast on "the Five" espousing the wonders of this perfect vehicle and why every human in America must buy one, or be deported for treason.
Also kinda proof of how much control these guys think they have over the media. And economy.
Without a 4-year-old plan, their reactions to unexpected counter moves seem far-less succinct. Less graceful move than say a MAGA hat snuck into a game on the broadcast-controlled NFL game.
Talking heads buying Teslas to prop up Musk’s self-inflicted sales crash is nothing more than a desperate, performative stunt. It won’t change the fact that the brand’s reputation has taken a hit. Consumers aren’t fooled by forced loyalty plays when the real issue is leadership and quality.
This is entertaining. Could there be a more corrupted, unethical group of people running your country? Good lord. Poor Joe Biden must have a little cry everyday at the disaster the country has become.
Honestly seeing them on the lawn with the desperate gleam of salesmen in their beady, squinting eyes, helped me realize just how far we have come since the inauguration. The resistance is working and they are scared.

Didn’t they do this for the pillow guy just before he went under? When the larger retailers stopped carrying his products all of the sudden all the maga bigwigs were touting his pillows
I’m so over these evil assholes. I’m not defeated, overwhelmed or depressed by their bullshit. On behalf of everything that is right and good in this world, I am fucking furious and I’m taking action as a result. I am certain good will triumph over evil. If we fight for it. 🇨🇦
People losing their jobs, 401k’s tanking, and these people are trying to sell Americans cars owned by the Nazi billionaire robbing our country blind. They are ALL traitors.
Do they really think the majority of the Trump base are going to run out and buy a Tesla? Do they know their demographic???? Haven’t they spent the last 8 years screaming “woke” at EVs????

We need to keep pushing.

Holy crap, that will blow his Nazi arm bands off!

We are living in the god damn Twilight Zone.

“The same MAGAs that were "coal rolling" Teslas 5 years ago will be lining up to buy them now.”

The die is cast & it's snake eyes for Elon.
The world sees the ketamine crasher for who he is.

Tesla is massively overvalued (even with the downturn) because of Musk's original image as a genius innovative engineer.
We need EVs. Not Musk.
It's like WaPo and Bezos. The Post is an iconic American institution. We need the Post, not Bezos.
That is, if the check doesn't bounce.
If it's ever issued.

So...no.
