Is this a move out of desperation?

quote:

Tesla fans, get ready for “Teslaquila.”
The company submitted a trademark application for the word on Monday, suggesting a tequila with Tesla branding could be on the way. The form is visible on the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office site.
Tesla’s “intent to use” filing indicates it's not using the word now but plans to at some point down the line, CNBC reported.
Tesla’s CEO, Elon Musk, also tweeted a link to the report. “Teslaquila coming soon …” he wrote Friday.

Is that a shot that drinks itself?

Do you think he would be doing this if he wasn't in the mess hes in?

If Tesla was churning out more money would he do this?

I helped beta test Teslaquila actually.

Got down to the bottom of the bottle and found half a worm, with a note that the other half would be delivered next quarter.

I don't necessarily think he's desperate. TSLA is trading higher than Apple (down this year) and some say they are years ahead of any other auto maker. They are about to start making their own computer chips for automated driving. Same as Apple did when they were growing so fast the chip companies couldn't keep up.

Will the US government front him the money to get this tequila business started?

I'm confused at what mess you think he is in. The company has been around for only 15 years and seem to be moving at a rapid pace. Yes, he has issues with the SEC, smoked pot on a podcast, and sleeps in his office. What do you think was going on at Apple in 1991?

And yet one is profitable and the other is not. I let you guess which is which.
