    Reminds me of “Trump Steaks.”

    Turned out that nobody wanted Trumps meat in their mouth.

    I mean thats basically what he said today. Tesla's stock has gone way down as well as the entire economy as a whole, and all you can do is post in this thread while you hide from the fact that Trump is about to cause a recession.

    Well, looking at the MAGA folks on my Facebook feed today, two have posted that they are going to buy a Tesla. I'm pretty sure one is lying just to tweak the libs but the other is so crazy she might just do it.

    I read we won't reach AGI unless we feed the beast more gud data.

    Maybe things have become absurd because skynet wanted to make itself happen.

    "Liberals kicked the can down the road" lol liberals kept the job market red hot, stock market boomed, inflation dropped, deficits decreased. It's funny how you losers have to lie so much about the previous 4 years

    Sure. not that i expect you to understand.

    When we lose 100,000's of top talent private jobs each month, we call that a recession. so be it. Trimming the fat and buckling down.

    When we cut 100,000's of useless government employees, its considered a coup.

    The idea that government jobs are all useless is just insane bullshit. It's a damn shame that all of us have to suffer for morons to get their medicine.

    But don't worry we got 4 trillion dollars in tax cuts available to billionaires in the next coming months....

    We have to cancel hundreds of thousands of jobs and cut cancer research so we can give billionaires another tax cut. What a joke

    outside of some far extremist anarchist, I have never seen anyone say all government jobs are useless. Can you please share some examples of people suggesting otherwise?

    The private sector in America is basically steadily winding down to scams and outsourced labor. Like we are heading to a economy where it is basically just that.

    Corporations that once were engineering powerhouses are just glorified finance companies pumping of short term value by doing things like cyclical layoffs.

    There is no human that is has the wide enough breadth and depth in terms of knowledge in all career fields and fields of study to accurately determine what 100,000 federal jobs are useless. Especially a edgelord autistic glorified salesman and his team of groypers with no life experience.

    You understand this right? You are suffering from peak dunning-kruger.

    The fact you have confidence that there are 100,000 useless jobs in the federal government implies a level of breath and depth of knowledge in various career fields and tasks the federal government operates that is at a unprecedented genius level.

    I've heard BYD (a Chinese-made EV) runs circles around Tesla as far as quality and bang for your buck. I have no idea if it's true or not, but I do know Biden put a 100% tariff on them. If I were going to buy an EV I'd take a closer look, even with the tariff.

    IMO you're setting yourself up to be vandalized owning a Tesla. It's only to get worse if they succeed in their ultimate goal of privatizing social security.

    Yea the cuts are awful and I dont agree with them, you dont even have the knowledge to say whats useful and whats not. You just blindly trust Elon because you hero worship him.

    But for the stock market to be down THIS BAD is not simply because of those cuts, his tariffs are destroying consumer confidence, raising prices and destroying businesses.

    Tesla stock is highly overvalued compared to other high-valued automakers who sell more than a million autos annually.
