    Musk, Trump and the rest of the Republican leaders have been trying their very best to sink the ship of America.

      And make it everyone else’s fault somehow.

      Essentially want to be the only option - buy a Tesla and fill both the trunk and frunk with gasoline or get wrecked.

      Nevermind they’re pumping and dumping the entire stock market now, turning all the safeguards off, and extracting wealth at a rate that makes Congress look like child’s play.

    Seeing a billionaire complain about shit like this is so fucking funny.
    Bro could have fucked off with his money and done literally whatever he wanted for the rest of his life and instead gets bullied by normies and cries about it online.

    There is nothing i could do to be as pathetic and as much of a fucking loser as this guy. hahahahahaha

    Elon musk is the modern Icarus - he wears the wings someone else invented, does not know how to wield them properly, flies too close to the sun and dies crashing. Except, it’s not only wings, it’s a fucking airplane and we are all along for the ride.

    Wonder why he’d be pondering America being destroyed. I thought his team was making everything better for the US.

    Then whyyyyy did he work so damn hard to sink us? Fucking idiot. No matter what happens, even if I hear about it in a Salvadoran labor prison, if he kills himself, it’ll be a good day.

      No matter what happens to the rest of us, Musk’s future is on a mega yacht cruising around molesting any mammal that moves, and he knows it. He’s the world richest man, he’ll be fine.

    If only we let To Big To Fail corporations die, we might actually be competitive and not have to ban the competition.

    The fuck it will.

    Elon might go down with it (probably not), but one shitty, Nazi-led, small time automaker going from circling the drains to out of business won’t hurt the US.

    The US will be better off once all remaining Teslas are in history museums. Preferably in the section where kids on field trips can learn about Great Mistakes in American History.

      Isn’t the implication that he’s saying Tesla will fail if America fails, not that America will fail if Tesla fails? He’s basically saying he has tied his fortunes to America’s future, not necessarily the other way around.

    Most people: “If the world explodes everyone will die!”. Musk: “If the world explodes I will die!”.
