Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

God damn is he stupid. TF did he think was gonna happen when he pissed off the kind of people that buy EV's
Nothing. He's not used to consequences.
He thought he was smarter and that it would be over in a week. He thought no one would keep listening to the bad and they are the type of leaders that only listen to themselves within their own echo chamber.
Tesla is crumbling for sure.
Suck it Elon!
I hope it falls even more, what a loser
This is the true face of Musk, who is stuck perpetually in the mindset of a melodramatic 15 y/o.
It shows that a 5 y/o and a 15 y/o is running the country.
JFC I'd actually appreciate the maga version of the Democrats.
These fictional Democrats are organized, well funded, cohesive and seem to have a great long term strategy for ruining republicans. With an organization like that you'd think that they would be in control of the government?

Good, strip his US citizenship and send his worthless back to South Africa.
In an IDEAL world, Musk will be removed as CEO for both failure to perform (he's literally not doing his job given that he's doing all his DOGshitE) and the harm he's bringing to the brand. No other CEO would be allowed to get away with this.
Then, in a JUST world the stock will stabilize, start to grow again, and everyone will get back on the EV train with Tesla included. While the Muskrat watches from the sidelines like the loser he is.
CAVEAT: only if he also doesn't still own any more of the stock than he could get owning VTSAX like the rest of us.
Maybe its a bit of a spicy take... but honestly, I'd be okay with this being a death spiral for tesla. They played their role in getting EVs into the mainstream, now let their figurative head rot on a pike as a warning that letting a shithead nazi helm your company is an existential mistake, and not just a bump in the road.
I won't totally disagree. But a lot of employees will lose their jobs and an innovative competitor would leave the market. Maybe a middle ground would be like, a hostile takeover bid that also merged them with Rivian or something. Then a rename to "eXla" just to fuck with Elon :)
He also circulated a video taken by a customer in their new Cybertruck, writing, “Heartfelt thanks to everyone supporting @Tesla, despite many attacks against our stores and offices.”
that's the meltdown.
It's RollingStone, btw, whom Yahoo is reposting. This is the Nü "May be collapsing" headline the corporate news sewers need to push. They're desperate for someone or something to go down so they can claim victory.
Musk is going to walk away with billions stolen from taxpayers, and he's not 'melting down' for shit, he just Xitted something before dosing himself and it sounds vaguely like something a regular person might have said so they jumped on it.
Good. Fuck him and fuck that overvalued shitty car company.
Really feels like I got a front row seat to this massive dumpster fire of an administration.
