    m’am at some point you need to figure out how to cleanse your heart of all the hate you are carrying around - it is not healthy

    If the next Democratic president is anything like Trump he or she will pardon the criminals who may be charged with domestic terrorism by AG Pam Blondi (misspelling intentional) for damaging Tesla vehicles, charging stations or dealerships.

    You of all people shouldn’t accuse others of being full of hate.

    The drop in earnings that Tesla experienced in the first quarter is probably much more attributable to its loss of market share in China than it is to a drop in US sales attributable to prospective purchasers of EVs who are pissed off by Elon's stunts. There are multiple Chinese companies there are producing quality EVs at prices far lower than Tesla.
    An example:

    An article on the subject:
    Tesla is being squeezed out of the Chinese market, workers are being pushed to their limits

    Yeah, poor guy... he's still a billionaire. Lol. He told you why he did it, and he knew how the Dems would react ahead of time... minus the death threats that the out-of-control Leftists have become.

    Wait, what?!

    Since when is having disdain for those who attack our Capitol building worse than disdaining those who attack a gosh-darn Tesla dealership?!

    Answer me that, please, little lady!

    My guess is it’s falling in the next year to about 150. My opinion is not worth a cup of coffee though.

    Depends on if he can leverage his AI company. Had to use it to pay off X already. Self driving dream is vanishing, batteries and semis may save Tesla though

    Right-wing nuts: Elon is a genius! Liberals should buy his stupid green cars that we hate and if they don't it's because of hate!

    funny- not buying his car does not mean you are a hater- the ones who are trying to destroy the cars of others and at the dealerships are the haters

    Cool. So like a few haters you can count on one hand and hundreds of thousands/millions of potential customers punishing them by not buying their cars. Focus on the few while the many bury that company.

    I am focused on those who commit a crime - I could care less who buys a Tesla
