Gladly, the US isn't the boss of the world anymore- despite Trump's protestations and tantrums. Tesla & Big Oil have been hard-lobbying to keep tariffs high on Chinese imports. Tesla prefers people buy their $70k+ EVs, and Big Oil would rather that people not be able to buy $30k EVs in North America. Car Culture must continue on!
All true. But even if it wasn’t for Trump and all his nonsense Tesla took their eye off the ball a while back. China will steal the bottom end of the market and they’re rapidly losing the luxury space to the likes of Audi, Mercedes etc. The truck is just a stupid gimmick. Even the likes of Renault are making Tesla beaters now. And it’s because Musk is actually a really shitty CEO as well as being a really shitty person.
He had to have also bought the media. They pretended like he was the genius of Tesla as well as SpaceX. He's just the CEO with mental problems. Now a drug problem and has been a spoiled rich kid his entire life. But someone or some group must have helped bring this all about. He's never been a profitable CEO and has lived on our government grants this entire time.
