    Hopefully.

    Oh, the legal system won’t do shit because it’s broken as fuck… but I’m hoping Harris wins and the constant stream of Tesla subsidies gets cut off.

    That fucker should be destitute.

      It won’t. The US has made SpaceX its primary service provider for launch services. We’ve also made it a point to try and insource our production of electric vehicles, and Tesla remains the primary manufacturer for these kinds of cars.

      We can’t stop. We won’t stop. We’ll just keep shoving Elon money with one hand while wagging a finger at him with the other.

        The guy you are responding to said Tesla, you changed the subject to another company elon owns. Tesla losing value would be extremely harmful to elon. The guy you responded to knew what he was talking about. You are just adding noise showing that you know of other companies elon owns.

          I addressed them both. But SpaceX has been in the news more recently, after winning a number of high profile government bids.

          Tesla losing value would be extremely harmful to elon.

          Tesla’s valuation has already been linked to a number of stock manipulation schemes, several of which the SEC has outright called him on (despite failing to follow up with any meaningful sanctions). It won’t lose value so long as he can continue to artificially prop up the price through manipulation.

          The guy you responded to knew what he was talking about.

          What sanctions is Elon currently facing? Show your work.
