Any of my knowledge of this is based on the show Succession, so I probably have no idea what I'm talking about, but couldn't Tesla's board remove Elon as CEO for making terrible decisions that negatively affect shareholders?
Yes, they could once they prove that Elon's actions are impacting the day to day at Tesla regardless of conduct. The issue is the board is made of sycophants who will vouch for Elon, namely James Murdoch, JB Straubel, and his brother, Kimbal Musk
And, if Elon had a real board, this probably would have already happened. This is a perfect example of why. What problem has Disney caused Tesla that they could possibly articulate to a customer that would justify this move and not cost them good will if nothing else, and sales likely especially as this gets a ton of coverage? "Yes, I understand your frustration, and yes I can hear your kid screaming in the background about not being able to watch Frozen while you're stuck charging. But you see, sir/madame, our CEO has a very, and I really have to make sure I state this correctly, but very tiny penis. It's so small, just constantly peeing on his balls (which are also very small.) We here at Tesla let him compensate for this by making the product worse for you, our paying customers. Anyway, can I interest you in a CyberTruck? Please? We've only sold 3 and my family needs to eat."
