So just so we’re clear here. It’s completely fine for F’elon Musk to manufacture the cars in fascist America, but also countries such as Germany and China. Totally fine.
But it’s NOT ok for other car companies to produce and manufacture their cars in countries that aren’t the USA?
Hypocritical much there you rancid old
snakeoilcar salesman?Fuck Trump and a super bigly Fuck You to Elon.
how in the fuck is boycotting illegal?
Well according to him it’s not illegal If he’s saving toe country.
Collusively lmao
Theres no way this is an actual tweet. Guys…?
I like how it’s illegal to just decide to not buy something. Capitalism sure has changed.
I know it’s not illegal, just making a joke off the dumbass’s words.
Huh, maybe putting the EV tax credit back in and banning the ridiculous EV registration fees that states are foisting on us would help electric vehicles sell?
I can’t say it’s this way for every state, but my understanding is that the registration fee for EVs is to replace the fact you’re not paying the gas tax which is meant to help pay for road maintenance.
At least here in PA that’s what they’re intending to do. I don’t believe it’s been implemented yet, however.
How about we remove the fuel tax and instead bill per mile driven? When the gas tax was 25 cents per gallon, EV and Hybrid drivers were paying 30-50% more road tax than a gas car. (It’s somewhat even now, assuming you drive your car 14000 miles a year) When the pandemic hit, gas taxes were dropped to 1 cent per gallon… Did the reg costs get waived? Nope.
I think this could work to guarantee everyone pays their fare share.I’m not 100% certain how miles driven should be tracked though. Obviously the odometer, but does the driver report that or the person doing the inspection? How do you make sure accurate reporting is being done?
Agreed, my other concern is where those miles are being driven. If you live on a border, reg the car in one state, but drive 50% of the time in the other…
I figure it would be something where commerical drivers submit milage reports for the year. Personal transportation would have the option of having the odometer checked, self submitting their odometer readings, or paying for the average milage for the state.
I work in the defense industry. Many of my coworkers are conservative. Most of them would never consider an electric vehicle (I heard them laughing about rolling coal on a Tesla recently). So the target audience doesn’t want them, and the former audience is now staunchly opposed. Who do they think will buy them at this point?
He sure does suck off Elon a lot on social media
He does in the oval office too.
My cousin and his wife bought a couple many years ago when they were all the rage. Before all this crap happened. I’m a bit scared for them. This will only redouble people’s anger towards Teslas. (But it’s well deserverd)
So wait…. Boycotts are illegal now? It’s mandatory to buy their trumpmobiles?
Nazicar
His misuse of public office should be landing him a third impeachment. Why is any of this being ignored as the new normal?
Because the American people are cowards, and don’t know how to stand up against this. Their inaction speaks volumes in its own way.
This dudes tweets reminds of the loud speakers in North Korea blasting propaganda non stop.
This can’t be true. It’s a fake, right ?
Not enough ALL CAPS.
nope, it’s real.
Lmao on these whiny ass babies. Fuck Tesla, if people don’t want to buy them, you can’t stop them.
Soon to be added to government employment applications…how many tesla do you own and if accepting the job, would you qualify for financing for a tesla?
Don’t worry, dumpy will divert federal funds to some other elon owned business under the guise of removing corruption and cronyism.
Most likely i’d say spacex/starlink related, since there are few that can compete in private space in terms of us companies right now. hundreds of billions can easily be sunk into anything aerospace related.
