When I first read this, I wondered why someone living in the US would want Trump to finish destroying the US? He is blowing up the whole country, just not the one MAGAs are thinking of. |

| This war is nothing more than a scam to make Elon more money by promoting his EVs. |

Many countries were going all in on EVs and are now feeling vindicated. However, Tesla is not doing as well as it should, primarily because Elon is extremely unpopular with the core EV clientele, which skews liberal. And not just in the US, but everywhere in the world: Elon is persona non grata. |

Bombing Iran won't finish the job or lower gas prices. Ironically bombing Israel would end the war much quicker and lower gas prices at the same time |

The US car market does not matter. The rest of the world will move to EVs especially for shipping(passenger cars, medium & heavy duty trucks, trains and ships). Tesla may not be around in 2 years. |

Tesla employs 134,000 worldwide, most of them in the US. It employs 24,000 at the Austin Gigafactory and 20,000 at the Fremont, CA factory. If it goes out of business, will GM and Ford start making EVs? Or maybe we will be allowed to buy a BYD? |

The US car manufacturers make up 30% of the US market and the US market is 16% of the world market. Biden invested 23 billion in to domestic EV and battery manufacturing. Trump canceled it all and US car manufacturers wrote off 52 billion shutting down plants. Tesla is getting crushed by Chinese car manufacturers in China. GM and Ford have given up on the world market(Asia, South & Central America, Europe and Australia) and are very close to being confined to the US car market making gas and diesel cars/trucks. The Chinese are taking market share in Asia, South America, Central America, Europe, Australia and Africa from Japanese, US and European car manufacturers. When they allow Chinese cars in to the US market they will take a large share of it. Right now the Chinese have cars that cost $25,000 with 400 miles range at -30 c. These are really nice cars. In 3 years these car will be $12-$15k. Their luxury brands will be $40k. The average new car in the US is $51k. Think of how that will help people in this country. |

| ^Once China takes major market share, their car prices will go up. Count on it. They highly subsidize their auto industry. |
