He’s offering to sell everything. Not just our environment, but our entire government.

The most blatant lack of policy ideas was on display when the Republicans were pushing “repeal and replace” of the ACA.  They never put forward any plan to replace it with and therefore never had the votes to repeal it.  I’m all for coming up with a better plan for something but don’t try to repeal an existing one

It will be great for old rich white guys.

Have always and will always have love for all things cars, but I totally agree on your point. We need forward thinking and Trump’s mentality takes us back into the dark ages reversing any attempt at future progress in addressing any of the big issues. Frankly, I’m a helluva lot more optimistic with Harris in the race

You are saying, in other words, that Democrats know how government works, and know how to get legislation through the wickets. Meanwhile, Republicans have lost this ability and have only ideas, but no ability to get them to the chamber floor. To this, I say you are absolutely correct.

One the one hand, you have a politician with actual policy ideas.

the resulting impact on Tesla car sales was not crucial because Tesla is an artificial intelligence company focused on self-driving technology.

I love cars and internal combustion engines. Unfortunately, the ICE is literally killing us and we need governmental action to help build suitable replacements and supporting infrastructure.

OK, clarification: Donald Trump has no policies or policy ideas. He has vague ideas, mostly bad ones. Like maybe we could expose our guts to the sun to kill covid. He is however surrounded by really dangerous people who have policies, and those people know they can get him to sign off on anything if they just suck up

Yep. The Republican Party has the mentality of losers.

Still waiting for that fantastic replacement of the Affordable Care Act.

The way George Conway rips into American Hitler’s mental illnesses is refreshing with its brutal frankness:

Can we just edit that headline to correctly read “Trump Presidency will be bad for everyone”?

The peddler of MAGAmobiles would like to disagree with you.

That Shkreli-like smirk on Donald The Felon’s face:

Trump has not explained the plan in detail.

A bit too late for him. The people are not buying his shitmobiles at the previous rate either. A million other choices of great EVs and going full on fascist will turn off a large segment of the EV buying market.

I think the real reasoning is a lot more basic than that. When Trump was running against Biden, Musk made the calculation that Trump was going to win and wanted to ingratiate himself. Now that Trump is running against Harris, it’s looking like a totally different race and Musk doesn’t want to be in the crosshairs of a

Now there is a poll about Tesla investing in xAI to the tune of $5B. I guess he saw the stock price down and needed to do something.

And now Musk has reneged on his $45 mill/month to Trump. His “reasoning”? He doesn’t believe in the “cult of personality”.
