People who won't buy a Tesla today aren't going to suddenly say, "Oh, Musk is no longer is running DOGE, I think i should buy a Tesla now."

Tesla is now a symbol for Musk. and Musk is now a symbol for the Neo-fascists and arrogant billionaires who are destroying our nation and robbing the middle and working classes blind. It will take years and totally new management before Tesla has any chance of somehow crawling out from under Trump and Musk.
