He actually had to sell some of his stock to pay taxes a couple of years ago. And when he did so it dramatically dropped the price of the stock. So no. There's a rule in place that if you have a stock for X amount of time you do not have to pay taxes on it when you sell it.
Oh we should absolutely be fighting but not with guns. We should be fighting with the law and protests. We should be confronting these fuckers at every junction. But the moment we pick up a gun or a rock or some other violent means we just give them the excuse to escalate the fascism.
Unfortunately, this is a exactly what Trump wants. He wants riots and chaos so he can declare martial law and gain even more power and possibly delay or even cancel elections. All of this is calculated.
Honestly I think the real nail in the coffin for that company would be if another company like BYD came in and started selling their EVs on the market. Cause unlike Tesla they make decent cars at affordable prices.
90% of what is keeping Tesla's value is the tech bro community's absolute belief in Elmo. If he sold all of his shares the value of the stock would plummet to almost zero. Hell if he even just sold a moderately large portion of his shares the stock price would plummet dramatically. That's why he's always so reluctant to sell his stock and basically uses it to leverage loans.
I'm sorry where are you getting this information from? Everything I've read about him says he's progressive and looking for progressive candidates. He's a very staunch gun control advocate (I think you'd be shocked at how many corporate Democrats are not). Which is understandable because he was a survivor of a school gun massacre.
If you look at Alexandria Ocacia Cortez's primary, when the DNC realized what was happening they tried desperately to undo her primary win. Going so far as to endorse the incumbent Democrat who stayed on the ballot due to a technicality.
These people are not trustworthy at all.
Another example would be Biden's primary win in 2020. The DNC used the pandemic as an excuse to end the primary process early and just declare Biden the winner. And even before that they were heavily pushing Biden on everyone and doing their best to lock Bernie out of just about every poll they conducted, pretending like had no chance even though he was pulling numbers that were equalling, and even surpassing in places, Biden at the time.
“Let me be clear, this is not about shielding incumbents or boosting challengers,” Martin said.
Liar liar pants on fire. These people are so steeped in their own bullshit that they can't even recognize how full of crap they truly are. I'd be willing to bet if this guy could reverse AOC's win in the primary in her district in New York he would do so.
Don't forget medical visits and one other thing... Hmmm, what was it again that almost half of children born end up needing again? Oh yeah, baby formula.
Yeah, none of that shit was planned. His little "Now's a great time to buy!" message was just his way of making sure the market didn't continue to spiral downward due to his incompetence with the tariffs. Trump is simply full of bluster and pomp but there's no actual intelligence behind any of it. He's a used car salesman trying to sell his broken down policies to the people who voted for him. He's also trying to sell himself to those billionaires. Hoping for a golden parachute when this gig finally expires.
With a congress full of Republicans and utterly spineless democrats, I wouldn't hold my breath for a renewal of funding. Not to mention Orange Julius Caesar is likely to veto any spending on people who aren't absurdly wealthy.
No, but don't you understand? Tesla is not a car company, it's an AI company. They were just making cars while developing AI systems. So it's fine if they stop selling cars. So just keep buying TSLA stock and everything will work out great!
It's honestly better if that inventory sits on the lot unpurchased. It costs them money to store it and it looks bad for them having old inventory around months or even years out of date. Torching it just gives them a nice insurance payout.
They were overpriced garbage anyhow. BYD is outputting EV's that are ten times better at a fraction of the cost. The only reason they aren't being sold here is a bunch of protectionist bullshit that even democrats are responsible for.
It's only misplaced faith by a bunch of techbro traders that's even keeping the TSLA stock aloft. Tesla management literally dumps every certificate of stock they get as bonus the second they receive it.
