Elon Musk knew, long before he so strongly Endorsed me for President, that I was strongly against the EV Mandate. It is ridiculous, and was always a major part of my campaign. Electric cars are fine, but not everyone should be forced to own one. Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far, and without subsidies, Elon would probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa. No more Rocket launches, Satellites, or Electric Car Production, and our Country would save a FORTUNE. Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this? BIG MONEY TO BE SAVED!!!

Elon has proven that he is no patriot. He was just another grifter looking to try and buy influence. The orange man doesn't play that game. Making an enemy out of Trump in not a smart move. Starting a 3rd party has nothing to do with caring about the American people it will be just another attempt to donate money in hope of getting preferential treatment. It will fail like many of his rocket launches.

Apparently dude’s just a nut. I always figured he was a weird s.o.b., but I didn’t anticipate him being such a nutty wackadoodle.

Libertarian bros going to be mad that the biggest welfare recipient of all time is under the crosshairs

SpaceX should be nationalized for national security concerns (consider it compensation for the decades of subsidies to Musk), and Musk can go to South Africa with Tesla and other corps

Musk is exhibiting some genius decision making here. Piss off all the libtards, then lose MAGA. Yuge customer base left to sell to!

No I understand that why, just why there has to be this type of reaction.

He handled the previous spat pretty well and magnanimously in my opinion. Would have been nice to see that again.

But just like everything else, it’ll blow over.

It’s a bad look for Elon that he is out here shilling for EV subsidies while wanting cuts on everything else

“Do as I say not as I do”

Trump is a straight up liar.

Elon Musk has always been AGAINST EV subsidies and has called for their removal for a long time.

He said publicly at the white house "I think we should get rid of all credits".

All this shows is that Trump is swamp trash who looks for any bullshite to smear people who oppose him.

frick that piece of shite.

Elon Musk has been against all EV tax credits for years. They don't need help, they have the #1 selling car in the world, EV or otherwise.

Trump is a liar who thinks his base is full of retards that will buy anything he says.

And if Trump really gave a shite about America instead of loyality to his fat arse, he's be proud that it was an American company that finally beat out Toyota for the best selling. But nope, he's a fricking mental midget.

You have been asked multiple times on here to explain in detail what further cuts you think are politically possible.

Tiny Medicaid “cuts” are causing an absolute meltdown and freak out

Please give me a concrete example of a large spending cut that is politically possible

MAGA is over and the neocons/GOP will lose the next midterm and election no matter who you want to blame for it.

Republicans had their chance and it only took them 6 months to blow it. All you've got left is your 20% neocon base.
