I'm honestly not surprised, it's what he's hinted at before. This is what Vance and those other weird conservatives want too.
Tesla stocks aren't about investing in a car company, they're betting at how well he can loot a nation
Why is it that Trump would effortlessly weave "Crooked Hillary" and "Crooked Joe" and "Lyin' Kamala" into his speeches, and Democrats never fired back, they just let it stand?
They did, it just didn't stick. But "crooked Joe" didn't really stick either. He used up his good ones in 2016.
Musk announced he's going to focus more on his businesses now, so I expect their value to tank even more
Well yeah, now that he's got access to everyone's personal data, and has contracts in place. He got what he need out of this.
It shows the genius of Tesla investors that they believe the problem is the Nazi who came up with the Cybertruck is not involved in the company enough.
I think it's more that if Mux isn't actively setting fire to the federal government or implicated in the trade war then consumers won't take it out directly on Tesla.
Even Musk isn't dumb enough to support the tariffs which threaten his business interests, probably as big a reason for his reduced WH presence as the public backlash. He was on Xitter railing against Peter Navarro and calling him slurs.
I wonder how far he got in the data for Social Security/Medicare/Medicaid and particularly for the Department of Defense. Does the DoD need a good version of DOGE to clean it up and make some cuts? Yes. Do I trust Musk to have access to their information? Hell No. Unlike other departments, anything with DOGE and the military has been very quiet, I could only find a few stories.
One certainly would hope that people don't just reset on Musk if it's just his people doing all the damage and not him personally.
Unless he (his companies) do something like literally solve climate change or put the first person on Mars, his reputation is permanently damaged.

In the MAGA infighting between the racists/xenophobes and the Muskites, the country and world still always lose.
gross. In 20 years everyone thinking of starting a family will need a genetic test to make sure they're not Musk offspring hooking up with Musk offspring.
I would not be surprised if he conned more idiots into bearing his turkey baster children, but I'm not sure I trust noted hyper-natalist freak Liz Bruenig on this.
