is staged to attempt to ingratiate himself with the former base of car buyers, meaning left-leaning politically. That's why the feud will not be resolved. It's gaslighting. He will indeed fund Dem-campaigns.
IOW, he's pissed off the BBB has no room for EV mandates/credits? Could be. Rich people always be lukin' out fo demselves.
He's known what's in the Bill for weeks/months. I met a Tesla VP who retired and lives in Tahoe. He loaned me his Varg e-bike when we evacuated during the Davis Fire. I spoke to him today and he didn't offer any color on my belief that it's an act but he believes that Tesla is cooking the books.
I certainly wouldn't blame anyone for being cynical. Have you looked closely at the balance sheet and read the quarterlies? Could be some clues in there.
I haven't looked at the sheet but I'd assume they would do something creative like buying cars via offshore entities/LLCs/shells.
Elon's friend Jared not getting confirmed to run NASA was the last straw. Trump uses people while expecting loyalty then becomes indifferent. The Dems are a horror show, all we can do is pick which evil is less.
No, but he figured the Biden/Harris DOJ investigations were exigent. He's got a -EQ and he didn't foresee the backlash from the DOGE work. He's said as much. He cannot understand why ppl are vandalizing dealerships, etc. He's just a dumb Martingaler/geek who likes tech. WTF builds a tunnel system for 100s of millions of dollars that can only transport six EVs/24 ppl at a time? I digress.
