It is not illegal for consumers to boycott companies. The Supreme Court in 1982 ruled the First Amendment protects Americans’ rights to protest private businesses.
Make Tesla owners ashamed
Okay, guess I’m technically not boycotting Tesla. I just straight up can’t afford a car, not in this economy. Nor do I care, because there’s a bus stop just down the street. Not that I’m intimidated by Trump because I’m not American and he can’t prosecute this shit even domestically.
not using twitter counts.
Something something free market?
Soooo … Trump thinks he can force people to buy Teslas? Just like Elon is trying (and failing) to sue companies for not advertising on Twitter.
Nazis helping fund nazis…
So, a boycott is illegal, protest of Tesla outlets is terrorism. Do We the People get to have any say?
Trump: No, and now it’s illegal for you not to like me.
“Mr. Trump, you just attempted to overthrow the government of the Leader of the Free World™️, convinced the supreme court to hand you unlimited authority, and you still got elected president! What are you gonna do now?”
“I’m going to Disneyland!”
They’re panicking. The boycotts are working.
This shit is such bottom of the barrel trump antics
He has always cried fowl when anyone is critical
Let alone try to exercise their limited power
If it was one of his businesses I’d agree. But this is bottom of the barrel AND makes him look like a weak little lapdog for Musk.
This is his playbook with politics, business, PR in general
Felon rapist says what?
Even if boycotting were illegal how in the fuck would that be enforceable?
Simple, just put out an EO requiring every citizen to purchase a Tesla.
He’d also need to put out an EO making it illegal to wipe your ass with an EO.
Elon to Trump: “I can’t fund 2026 midterm candidates if Tesla goes broke”
Trump:
This seems hypocritical. Didn’t all those “Snowflakes” boycott Budweiser last year?
Yeah, but: Budweiser ghey.
Checkmate, liberals!
Yes, but no (not trying to be contrarian) because I felt it was definitely before last year
The Budweiser boycott started 2 years ago April 2023
But YES those are the same snowflakes
yes
Wait what
How the fuck are you gonna force me to buy a Tesla
Establish a federal Bitcoin reserve with tax money.
Have Elon only accept Bitcoin for payments from the government.
Give Tesla another federal contract for billions.
Buy more Bitcoin to replenish it.
I don’t understand how that forces me to buy a Tesla
Do you pay taxes? Do the price of your goods rise because corporations pay taxes?
When the government does something, it was a collective pool of resources that paid for it. When the government buys anything your productivity contributed to the purchase. Everyone’s did.
Are taxes optional (for the working class)?
This is pretty basic stuff fellas.
Especially since no one can afford them.
What part about 0% APR don’t you understand? /s
Pity he’s a liar and won’t actually use one, I like the thought of him being on fire.
The thought of him on fire gives me more joy than it should.
I don’t think former Presidents are even allowed to drive. Current ones, definitely not.
He can burn just as well from the back seat.
Hed probably keep burning for weeks
