So he expects to destroy America by May?

missnortonc.bsky.social•7 days ago

He's achieved what he set out to do. Shut down government departments investigating his business practices, divert funding from others into yet more contracts for himself. Job done. 😒

lolobrigido.bsky.social•7 days ago

Good 😊

unalux.bsky.social•7 days ago

Which I take to mean he will have embedded his minions into every nook and cranny of the government by then so the destruction can continue without him.

citizenalpha.bsky.social•7 days ago

Let him “return to the office” it doesn’t mean #Tesla will ever rebound. There is no lipstick for this pig. There are so many EV alternatives now we don’t need to shake hands with the Devil.

We all saw what he did. We all see who he is.

Will ppl change their mind if musk gets more involved??

Or should he give up is share stake??

maccus77.bsky.social•7 days ago

Nothing to do with the 150 day ruling then?

hostilepatriot.bsky.social•7 days ago

The damage is done, and hopefully, so is he.

tooroot.bsky.social•7 days ago

Was he doing 2 days a week.
Is he actually increasing from 1 to 2.

tsquaredt.bsky.social•7 days ago

They don’t want him either.

ericbanana.bsky.social•7 days ago

That company is history.

The damage is already done.

peterdavieson.bsky.social•7 days ago

Out of the frying pan, into the fire.

At this point, Musk is just staggering helplessly from disaster to disaster. He will never be poor, but his image is in unrepairable tatters .. and that will burn his narcissism like fire.

misterdac.bsky.social•7 days ago

Too late.
We will never forget.

scousehogboy.bsky.social•7 days ago

Can't see how Musk's return will improve things for Tesla. The Board must be able to see that Musk's well deserved toxicity is the problem 🤣

msbluewednesday.bsky.social•7 days ago

Has he got all the data he wanted then?

johna69.bsky.social•7 days ago

Damage is already done to both. But I’d be happy the world bankrupted him

robmironbridge.bsky.social•7 days ago

🫣😂🤣

mastiffmomma.bsky.social•7 days ago

So he got all of the data he needs now I presume

nathan-virica.bsky.social•7 days ago

At this point in time, Elon Musk going in to fix a struggling business is like treating aggressive lung cancer with intravenous asbestos injections.

kunzea.bsky.social•7 days ago

surely he knows it's a boycott, so bored with DOGE?

gracegeorge23.bsky.social•7 days ago

Good, but first give us back the data you stole.

raventerp1.bsky.social•7 days ago

Tesla is DOOMED. Tesla won't even take it's own cars back.

mandianne.bsky.social•7 days ago

He's done and so is his crap car company. I hope the freefall continues.

davemcleanjr.bsky.social•7 days ago

It won't matter. He's alienated Tesla's core customer base, and his MAGA crowd are never going to embrace EV over huge trucks, so Tesla is pretty much done. He's the Gerald Ratcliffe of the age.

marvintandroid.bsky.social•7 days ago

The damage is done, Gerald Ratner

prcan63.bsky.social•7 days ago

Tesla is done. After the salute they should have gotten rid of him. He’s shown the world who he is and no one will forget it.

rockybones.bsky.social•7 days ago

Does he really think that will save tesla...sure that horse has bolted.

lukedaluke.bsky.social•7 days ago

The reason it’s plunging is because of him. Him coming back to Tesla will be its death knell - the board need to dump him now!

benderlives.bsky.social•7 days ago

He stole all of the data and stopped all the investigations. Mission accomplished. And fuck that guy.

kendoran.bsky.social•7 days ago

Thank god, Tesla could really do with more Elon right now! Yes that’s definitely the problem.

wrenkh.bsky.social•7 days ago

That means he's got what he wants & he's bored now.
I hope he starts planning to go to outer space again. He'd do us all a favour if he did, especially if he takes Putin, Trump & Netanyahu with him.

be-three.bsky.social•7 days ago

Musk is too paranoid about death to go anywhere near one of his own explodey rockets. No amount of children balanced on his shoulders could protect him from a rapid unscheduled disassembly.

wrenkh.bsky.social•7 days ago

Excellent point, I had forgotten that.
Musk is such a septic tally-wacker

suewhiterose.bsky.social•7 days ago

Isn’t it time to boycott Starlink too? Don’t know anything about it really but if it’s available to consumers and not just governments it could be boycotted as well as Tesla couldn’t it?

iskragoch.bsky.social•7 days ago

It's not going to help. Oberst Gruppenfuhrer Musk has tainted Tesla forever. It can only recover if he leaves.

slamm3r.bsky.social•7 days ago

Not good enough.
The social media he tuned for trump, the election he bought, the civil service he decimated and his fascist traits he displayed must not be forgotten.

swilk.bsky.social•7 days ago

Elon: don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you

spack57.bsky.social•7 days ago

Damage complete?

quietnotabot.bsky.social•7 days ago

‘Don’t worry everyone, the Nazi nut-job is back in charge’ might not be the winning strategy they’re hoping for.

itsmeandyp.bsky.social•7 days ago

Oh, darn. 🙄 Elon is done. He hopped on the Trump crazy train and now it’s over for him. Trump destroys everything and everyone that comes within his orbit.

marleymouse.bsky.social•7 days ago

Chuckle. And again - chuckle 😂😂😂

robertrodden.bsky.social•7 days ago

Hmm, wonder what happened to his “go fuck yourself” attitude…

northfield.bsky.social•7 days ago

Musk being more visibly in charge of Tesla should finish it off nicely.

troutmayfly.bsky.social•7 days ago

He shouldn't be allowed to "step back" from the mess he has created - he should be fired and subject up a full.onvrstigstion got his actions and if he has broken any law subject to the full weight of the criminal justice system
