Did Elon Musk's Political Gambit Costs Tesla? 40% Sales Drop in Europe Raises Alarm

Did Elon Musk's Political Gambit Costs Tesla? 40% Sales Drop in Europe Raises Alarm

I would hope so: "The electric car is green" fantasy was never worth much to me after I looked into the matter, but many of the people who did buy into the fantasy were "leftish." They cared about the environment, albeit not with any sophistication about the realities of popular beliefs about what is and is not "green," "green" being a badly abused word in modern times.

His Maggotcy King Elon is not likely to go broke, but reducing his resources to reestablish apartheid and other unworthy disgusting immoral ideas he supports is a good idea.
