Musk cuts off his nose to spite one's face

Musk “going to Washington” was a big mistake! 

It’s always been my opinion that a vast majority of Tesla owners were leaning liberal or progressive, as their initial motivation for buying the car was their interest for the environment and their concern about emissions that are worsening climate change. 

Their conservative and particularly MAGA counterparts were more likely to get gas guzzlers like GM, Dodge or Ford SUV as a show of their disdain for such beliefs and their embrace of “Drill, baby drill!”.

Yet, Elon Musk chose to ignore his core Tesla clientele and ally with Trump. The same thing is happening in Europe, where after getting involved in politics there, (AFD in Germany and extreme positions in the United Kingdom) he’s seen a collapse of his car sales over that continent. 

Today he claims falling Tesla sales are the result of his total focus on DOGE and on retooling his factories for the update model Y when in fact it’s the result of turning his back on his original clients and their ideology. 

It’s my belief that Tesla sales will continue to decline and crash and that a company like Toyota will pick up the pieces and revive the brand. The guy might be technically smart but hopelessly lacking in emotional intelligence.
