Summary
Elon Musk lashed out online Monday as Tesla stock plunged over 15%, wiping out its post-election rally and shedding 50% of its value since December.
Investors worried about market declines, recession fears, and Tesla’s growing controversy after Musk’s far-right rhetoric and mass government layoffs.
Musk falsely claimed Democratic donors funded anti-Tesla protests and linked critics to Jeffrey Epstein. He amplified conspiracy theories blaming arson attacks on Democrats.
Despite his efforts, Tesla’s collapse cost Musk $23 billion in a single day.
Lol he’s so panicked he’s had to order Trump to send a tweet to try to convince right wingers to buy EVs now.
This coming from the same exact person that called for a boycott of Tesla not just two years ago, is fucking rich.
Like, what in the actual fuck. How is it illegal to boycott Tesla? But it wasn’t illegal when all the rednecks wanted to boycott bud-light for having a pro gay add? This clown is a fucking joke.
Because their boycotts usually consisted of buying a lot of the stuff they were angry about and then throw it away, burn it out shoot at it. 🤣
LOL! Remember when conservatives were blocking Tesla chargers with their lifted trucks? The vast majority of conservatives who can afford EVs don’t want them anyway because it doesn’t make “vroom, vroom” sounds.
How do you illegally boycott something? I know he’s a fucking moron but this is one of the stupidest things he’s ever said
In Texas, if you have a contract with the state or a school district, you have to sign a contract where you agree not to “boycott israel” whatever that means. So I guess if one was to “boycott israel” while taking money from the state of Texas, that could be considered an illegal boycott.
That feels like the government placing limits on the rights of corporations to express political views, which SCOTUS has stated is illegal (if you define speech as campaign contributions, which it does).
Not just corporations, but also individuals with a government contract and may also apply to government/school district employees

Is this real ? this sounds like actual schoolyard banter
It sounds way too coherent. It’s actually a decently-written blurb and has too little ALL CAPS. I think they messed up the AI that writes his tweets.
Unfortunately yes, our president is a moron.
I would love an explanation of how the boycott against Tesla is illegal.
“L’état, c’est moi,” so anything he doesn’t like is illegal.
Especially considering the Anheiser Busch (or however it’s spelled) boycot over someone else’s gender identity.
The ones yelling “Snowflake!!11” for a decade turned out to be crybabies. Who woulda thunk.
and busch had the last laugh, because they got ALCOHOLICS hooked they will never stop drinking busch beers.
Right? What’s he gonna do? Force us to buy Teslas with no money?
They make great fireplaces.
Holy shit I would laugh so hard if all these right-wing chucklefucks over-leveraged themselves on a Tesla, couldn’t pay the monthly payments, the car got repo’ed and they lost their home in the process.
Man who doesn’t drive buys fascist car to show solidarity with worlds richest man.
I fucking hate that man.

Far too vague for this timeline. More specificity, please.
Yes
He’s going to go a buy a Tesla tomorrow? I’m pretty sure he didn’t even keep the wrapped cybertruck that was gifted to him by those manosphere podcasters a while back.
Does trump even know how to drive? I don’t think I’ve ever seen him driving anything except a golf cart.
i heard he never got his license. made sense if yuor being driven everywhere in a limo.
Would have loved it if someone hit him with one of these in the debates
He’s a New Yorker, too.
He definitely doesn’t drive his own golf carts
So, I wonder if he’s really going to get one…he should like the new nickname they have.
Too bad must people are too poor to afford one! It’s much easier to NOT buy something in protest than to have to actually purchase something.
That’s the thing alot of them genuinely hate them. I don’t know if even Trump can get right wingers to start liking them?
