Not people; shitheads like Blackrock are the ones artificially keeping Tesla inflated.
Tesla announced today their Q1 sales were over 336,000 vehicles. If they sell that many every quarter (no idea, but for the sake of argument let's say they do) that means 1.3 million vehicles are sold every year. By contrast, the Big 3 sell over 700,000 half-ton pickup trucks each annually. In other words, consumers buy more F-150s, RAM 1500s, and Silverado 1500s a year than total Tesla sales.
One model line from those three combined far outsells Tesla, and yet Tesla has more "value" than those three collectively? Yeah, that's not fishy at all.
The Department of Education announced Monday it's investigating 60 colleges and universities over allegations of antisemitic harassmentanti-Israeli sentiment and discriminationhurting conservative feefees.
"The number of rights you have as a citizen of this country depend solely on which arbitrary lines you happen to be between at this immediate moment" is such a fucking brain dead take, it's not surprising that Republicans love it.
No, they'll blame Trump but never make the connection between him and the GOP, right-wing propaganda like Fox, and billionaires who prop the whole thing up.
Actually, it's because it's the weekend and he's spent 9 of the last 10 of them (since resoiling the White House) at his shitty golf course. Wonder why DOGE isn't saying shit about $26 million being spent on these little excursions?
He's plenty happy breaking laws and being corrupt in DC.
And since auto jobs have been exported to Mexico since NAFTA.
The big 3, sure. But there's many automakers who still do manufacturing in the US- Toyota, VW, Rivian, and Tesla (lol) come to mind. However, they're also building those plants in the South because of crap labor protections for workers and no unions.
Given the amount of media literacy the right in general and Elon in particular has, he'd probably watch Tropic Thunder and think the point was "It's okay to do blackface."
Call me a traditionalist, but it seems to me that if you're going to be advising the President on digital assets, it'd be nice to have an economics background.
None of the rest of Trump's cabinet have any qualifications, so why should this guy?
Once you have paid the Danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane.
And by "Danegeld" Kipling meant "bribe money" and by "Dane" he meant "the fat orange fascist fuck mob boss 77 million people were too goddamn stupid to realize should be in jail."
