    Removing already installed equipment costs money. Wondering if they will just turn the breakers off instead.

      first government scam?

      They will have a friends company charge the taxpayer and obscene amount to pull them up like stumps, then turn around and scrap them to another friends company.

        And then they’ll have to reinstall them when Musk’s state department cybertrucks get delivered.

    Wonder how the shareholders of Tesla react to this kind of news. Surely surely this should cause them to lose confidence in their CEO. If nothing else does, surely this has to be the kind of thing that does it. He’s publicly working against them now. How does that not cause people to lose faith in the stock and thus the CEO?

      Elon Musk has been mainlining the direct power of the entire United States Federal system for a month, he’s high as a fucking kite on that shit, he couldn’t give a solitary fuck if Tesla burns to the ground, he is one with the machine and is doing damage

        He stopped caring about Tesla long ago. I think he went absolutely insane when his kid transitioned. Blamed Twitter, bought it to kill it. Got buyers remorse, but also a shit ton of online attention. I think we all know how mental illness and online popularity goes. The dude just has so much money and power, along with a never ending hunger for “more.”
