I see two possibilities:
Musk finally realized that the main buyers for EVs are more left than right, and is now trying to rescue TSLA from collapse.
He’s a drug-addled raging narcissist with poor impulse control and worse judgment who loves being in the headlines.
It’s actually kind of hard to apply Occam’s Razor here.
Edit: Another possibility is that Elmo learned that Trump’s people leaked (heheh) the ketamine bladder damage story to the NYT.
There's no reason both can't be true.
Yeah, I mean, 2 is for sure true, but 1 may or may not be in the mix at this point.
He's not coming back from the Nazi salute thing. I guess in the US there's limited options for electric cars, but in Europe and Australia BYD is eating Tesla's lunch.
I agree. I mean it's a pretty consistent 90 degree nosedive for him and has been for a while lol
Love to see it.
I think 1 would be more accurately phrased that the shareholders have told him that in no uncertain terms.
Yeah, I'm sure that has happened at some point.
What was his next big reveal? That he's not 6' 3" and weighs more than 215 lbs?
But they're both Drake.
That would be in line with what we already know.

COMPLAINT FOR RAPE, SEXUAL MISCONDUCT, CRIMINAL SEXUAL ACTS, SEXUAL ABUSE, FORCIBLE TOUCHING, ASSAULT, BATTERY, INTENTIONAL AND RECKLESS INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, DURESS, FALSE IMPRISONMENT, AND DEFAMATION
Plaintiff Jane Doe, proceeding under a pseudonym, brings this action against Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein, and alleges that...
I thought we already knew that?
But either way, this is what we need: for the Right to balkanize and start publicly attacking each other. The Democrats are totally ineffectual at this sort of thing and the news will only report on it if the right wing does it anyway.
Edit: I got my wires crossed, we havent seen the epstein files, but we do know he [most likely] raped a 13 year old girl at an Epstein-related function https://www.courthousenews.com/rape-allegations-refiled-against-trump/
This is about as news breaking as Elons drug use. We all know. Bring some fucking proof.
But really, this all probably just more stock manipulation. Tank that Tesla stock before these two have some wild makeup sex.
Somehow I don't think the people who voted for a felon rapist traitor conman are going to care if he fucked some kids.
This is all distraction, while the shitballs in Congress pass the Big Beautiful Bill, which is engineered to destroy what's left of society.
Americans love them a shiny object.
I mean allegedly Elon doesn't like that bill, but we all know it's bc they took out the EV tax credit, not because of the tax cut / impact to the budget. Though he claims its because of the latter.
Hm. Well, before Musk said this, I 110% believed for certain that Trump was in the Epstein files. Now that he's the one who's saying it, I'm...not so sure.
/s, but seriously, this guy lies a lot.
I thought the Musk-Trump feud was political theatre but this sounds like it has actual venom in the words.
Maybe the honeymoon is really over
These guys deserve each other.
We don't though
We know. This isn’t new or news. They were friends. There’s a trump quote about Epstein liking “younger girls” just like Trump.
oh, I thought musk would be in the epstein file too. I thought it was mutually assure destruction. 🤔
Can’t wait till trump hits back with blacked out files showing only Elon’s name
in other news, elon musk claims water is wet
I don't like that Musk is the one 'revealing' this news. It seems like MAGAs opinion has soured enough that he could easily be considered just another part of the 'woke media empire'.
I hope I'm wrong, but this seems like it could be used to fuel misinformation quite easily.
Musk needs to fuck off forever.
Anybody have any idea what they’re trying to hide with this puppet show? Is the big bill getting too much attention or is it something else?
