Has he considered that EVs suck, aren't practical, depend on fossil fuels, and are far less safe in major accidents?
And to be honest who even knows if this bill is as bloated as Elon claims it is? This was not a talking point until Elon made it one, the lib media wasn't even talking about that. It seems like Elon is driving a cudgel because he simply didn't get his way. If EVs are so great they shouldn't be subsidized at this point in their evolution, and Trump should not have to appoint a Democratic friend of Elon's to NASA so that SpaceX can get more contracts. Elon can fuck right off. |

Date: June 5th, 2025 1:18 PM Author: Orchid Nubile Lettuce Depressive It’s well beyond EVs. Tesla has a huge and expanding stand alone storage megapack battery business that is best in class. It’s dependent on solar/wind projects as the battery enables power to be stored and deployed during off peak times. These projects are heavily dependent on the investment tax credit.
Elon doesn’t want to publicly say this is a major issue since these credits aren’t popular among MAGA so he’s attacking the main weakness of the bill (adding literal trillions to the deficit). |

Date: June 5th, 2025 1:20 PM Author: cream hyperventilating coffee pot But his tax credit itself would add to the deficit. The President is allowed to choose where he wants to allocate money. A billionaire throwing a hissy fit needs to be put in his place, I'm not seeing the issue. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5733717&forum_id=2Elisa#48989271) |

Date: June 5th, 2025 1:21 PM Author: Orchid Nubile Lettuce Depressive He’s not allowed to directly allocate where that money goes, congress is. Musk is a citizen with first amendment rights and is allowed to express his thoughts on the bill.
Republicans margin is razor thin and Musk can make things very difficult for them with one of the biggest built in audiences in the world.
Trump took hundreds of millions from Elon to beat Harris by 1.5%. He’s in his right not to let that put undue influence on him but there was always gonna be a price to pay. |

Date: June 5th, 2025 1:25 PM Author: cream hyperventilating coffee pot The President is allowed to choose an allocation that Congress can vote on and pass, yes. Elon is free to express his thoughts and we are free to criticize him. Me especially, given that I've long known Elon is a major fraud, and knew all along that this relationship was never going to work. It's better Trump gets rid of him sooner than later.

Date: June 5th, 2025 1:12 PM Author: Flesh Affirmative Action Rigpig funny how well msnbc forcememeing works on cons too.
maybe musk is butthurt about ev credits. maybe he, you know, got into politics because of a sincere concern for government spending which came at a great personal cost and is disappointed at the level of deficit spending despite winning the election as so many other cons are.
nah you and msnbc are right hes probably just a selfish prick MAF about tax credits. |
|
Date: June 5th, 2025 1:17 PM Author: cream hyperventilating coffee pot Would love to hear your enlightened defense of nominating a personal friend of his, a lifelong Democrat, to NASA.
Have you considered he's a charlatan, going back to his various lies about Tesla?
You think I'm forcememing? Lol why? I didn't even know until this morning, until Trump said it, that the EV credits were cut or that Trump vetoed the nomination. |
|
Date: June 5th, 2025 1:30 PM Author: Flesh Affirmative Action Rigpig probably because he's an autist and cares about science and doesnt give a fuck about partisan politics since he was a lifelong dem until woke shit turned him.
im saying msnbc is forcememeing this dumb drama and you're buying it. this is the political discourse equivalent of women watching reality tv. and you clearly hwve an axe to grind against musk and are having an obeezy level TESLA MAN BAD MOMENT because... he's concerned about government spending? isn't that one of your issues too? |
|
Date: June 5th, 2025 1:37 PM Author: cream hyperventilating coffee pot he cared about partisan politics until last week.
yeah of course i care about government spending but i'm also a realist and not expecting that to happen just because elon wishes it to be the case when there isn't recent precedent of that happening. not sure why you expect trump to singlehandedly reverse the culture of pork barrel spending in washington.
the more logical reason why elon is upset is because he didn't get his way and his companies are trending down, bigly, particularly tesla. it's amazing that you're still dumb enough to not see through elon at this point. |
|
Date: June 5th, 2025 2:03 PM Author: Flesh Affirmative Action Rigpig yeah enraging libs (his primary customers) to the point of boycotting him to support the gop over the dems (who would bave certainly kept ev credits) was all a savvy business move to... what exactly?
im not some musk worshipper. for years i remember pointing out to libs he wasn't le tony stark irl. now im doing the same thing with retards who keep saying hes autism hitler.
hes a human and the ceo of several major companies. does that mean sometimes hes a showman? of course. does that mean everything he does is in the interest of enriching himself or propping up his brands? certainly not. especially since he alienated a large % of his customers. |
|
Date: June 5th, 2025 3:15 PM Author: cream hyperventilating coffee pot well i think he read the tea leaves that kamala was not going to win and the self-interested cr move was to throw his support behind trump, who had previously made statements that could be interpreted as unfriendly towards EVs, Twitter, and social media.
the other thing of course is that trump is a uniquely venal potus in our lifetimes and elon accurately realized that he could manipulate the guy for his own gain, until of course he couldn't and this was all too predictable for a host of other reasons
elon had alienated his customers far before trump came along when he purchased twitter and openly started supporting conservative policies through social media |
|
Date: June 5th, 2025 4:18 PM Author: Flesh Affirmative Action Rigpig oh damn he did? and didn't he back ron too? wow, crazy that he alienated his customers because of his conservative values for years before he backed trump but when he backed trump (the remaining conservative candidate) that was only out of self-interest.
so let's get this straight:
buying twitter at a premium over it's already overvalued stock price: principled
using it to stan for ron desantis: principled
backing trump when he was the last remaining candidate: hoping to retain EV credits
wow, it all makes sense. crazy that the guy who plonked down billions into twitter for principled reasons would cuck because he wanted more money. |
|
Date: June 5th, 2025 4:31 PM Author: cream hyperventilating coffee pot he bought twitter at a premium because it gave him the outlet. that was not a financially motivated decision.
at this point, his former base of libs turned away from him.
then he supported desantis briefly, which was principled, sure. at this point he was still flirting with conservative positions and not truly revealing his beliefs.
then trump was shot, and elon mounted a full-throated defense because he knew at that moment that trump would win and it was the safest investment he could make. trump needed the money, elon needed trump as an asset given his previously hostile statements towards EVs, social media/twitter, and musk himself.
you seem confused. do you really think elon musk is complaining about the bbb because he cares about the deficit? |
|
Date: June 5th, 2025 4:57 PM Author: Flesh Affirmative Action Rigpig yes. i also think he's a true believer in his bullshit. and i think you're cognitive error here is that because you don't believe in it he must be a charlatan.
consider for a second that there are people that enthusiastically believe in EVs, spaceships, etc. and that it's possible one autistic guy with money invested in them because he actually believes in it and not because it's some machiavellian scheme. |
