    When you are done buying Tesla stock, your local Tesla dealership is having a "fire" sale on used Teslas.


    Market for used Teslas "crumbling"


    Who could have guessed that promoting Nazi hate speech on a social platform you control would have consequences!!!

    This was beyond stupid. He alienated the brand from the people most likely to buy it and is now appealing to MAGA types who are generally opposed to EVs and have many different ways to own the libs with their choice of ride, most of which have a solid add-on/custom parts option--and those other options don't have glued-on parts that fall off when you're driving down the road or a glued read end that pulls apart when you're towing something.

    The brand and stock will continue to tank.

    MAGA types were claiming electric cars were too expensive for basic Joes to buy, so this is their chance to save the world and feel more smug than libs.

    Tesla…most likely car to have some duct tape holding something on or together. I thought I had seen it all until I saw the guy on YouTube who couldn’t get his charging port door to open. So, we’ve gone from manual gas cap flip cover access with a spring to open it when you hit the release switch to an automated software controlled flip door that has and does fail meaning you can’t charge your car if it fails to open. Gotta love that Tesla luxury!

    Nothing would make me happier than seeing a bunch of MAGA supporters buy electric vehicles to own the libs.

    WASHINGTON—Warning that the charge carried a five-year mandatory minimum sentence, the U.S. Department of Justice declared Friday that the distribution of images featuring a balding Elon Musk constituted an act of domestic terrorism. “For the benefit of all Americans, anyone who posts or reposts photos from Mr. Musk’s PayPal days will be prosecuted for terrorism,” said Attorney General Pam Bondi, who confirmed the Justice Department was already prosecuting multiple cases in which social media users were alleged to have disseminated decades-old photos of the DOGE leader’s receding hairline. “Anyone who likes or replies to the photos will be treated as a terrorist sympathizer. If you possess these images, delete them now. Elon Musk is a patriot with a great American hairline.” At press time, President Donald Trump was showing his support for Musk by getting hair plugs in a televised press conference on the White House South Lawn.

    Yes - but the exact same thing can be said about Republicans in power.

    whatever people have been doing is clearly working…the stock has tanked, sales are plummeting, and the desperation has risen to the point where Trump has to do a sales pitch in front of the WH and Musk is on Fox News and twitter trying to be a victim
