    The fact that you think this is an argument, shows me how misguided you are. Have some respect for yourself, you cannot possibly think this a legitimate argument.

    Was this at the White House with the owner of Frito Lay who had donated hundreds of millions of dollars?

    "It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."

    Enjoy the tariffs, loss of freedoms, and general chaos in only 90 days. MAGA!!!

    This isn't just about an infomercial at the White House (embarrassing and shameful but we are well beyond that). No one is going to buy more Teslas because of it; sure, maybe a few, but I think the bigger, far-reaching risk affects everyone.

    Ethics 101 – When the government plays outright favorites (this White House has had a "for sale" sign up for quite some time now), it undermines the fairness of the business environment. It disrupts competition and erodes the free market, which should determine winners and losers. This behavior drives away legitimate investors and accelerates a path toward corruption, pushing honest businesses to seek more equitable opportunities elsewhere. This erosion of basic ethics artificially elevates weaker businesses, resulting in less innovation. And we all know that innovation is the foundation of future markets and national progress.

    It's sad and concerning that this is your counter argument.

    @Astrodome is just thinking "screw the D&D" I doubt he's being serious, not like I'd watch a video from Charlie Kirk in the first place. I'm not gonna stop ******** on him though...people like him are why we are in this position.

    Propaganda is a MFer...

    It wasn't a Kirk video. It is just Kamala.

    Look I don't like the woman but she's far better than the bipolar chief of tariffs. Prosecutor vs the Felon was odd to see play out for the party of law and order, unless it's a black woman of course...:rolleyes:

    Finally found someone stupid enough to believe GTS stands for "Guaranteed Tremendous Safety".

    None of us live in a binary world, but understand this - we most frequently hear this sentiment from Trump voters who are trying to justify voting for that corrupt lunatic. In that context, it's a bad faith argument due to the massive difference in cruelty, greed and corruption between the two parties.

    For the record, I didn't vote Trump. I believed Harris would do far less harm to this country.

    I like how low iq right wingers somebow always forget his Kamala destroyed Trump during that debate. Played him like a fiddle and he fell for every trap. Got him to talk about immigrants eating cats and dogs on a topic about border security.

    White privilege is something else

    I don't like getting to get into personal attacks so I will just say things aren't as bad as your percieve. I respect you for self deporting. So many others wouldn't make that leap. But the odds are that the gloom and doom that the left is predicting won't occur. You are a smart person so I know everything will be fine for you. Cheers from Texas.

    , after Tesla Had Sounded Alarm on Trump Tariffs


    Tesla has warned that the escalating trade war could lead to retaliatory tariffs, significantly increasing the costs of vehicle production in the U.S. and making Tesla's exports less competitive globally. This development comes as President Trump has recently imposed tariffs on imports from major trading partners, including Canada, Mexico, and China.

    Key Challenges Facing Tesla
    • Increased Production Costs: Tariffs on imported materials could raise the costs of vehicle production in the U.S., making Tesla's products less competitive in the global market.
    • Supply Chain Disruptions: The reliance on international suppliers for critical components like lithium and cobalt could be disrupted, leading to potential shortages and increased costs.
    • Retaliatory Tariffs: Countries like China, which is Tesla's second-largest market, could impose tariffs on U.S.-made vehicles, impacting Tesla's revenue and market share.
