I’m betting high odds he will force the federal government to buy them under the guise of a green EV transition. With trump’s full blessing, of course.

Why isn't the puny, petulant man-thing that runs the Nazicar Factory not suing us all for not buying them? That's how you deal with advertisers who don't wanna advertise with him so why not consumers who don't want to consume?
It's the next stupid, asinine step.
I hope anyone who ever admired this fuck face is deeply embarrassed. Or losing money.
Give him some time. Once his cronies get everything working right he won't have to sue, he can just deny federal benefits to people who don't order a cybertuck and send their hearts out to him when they receive it.
All DEI fault for this failure
/s (if it wasn’t obvious 🙂)
Na this is caused by immigrant /s
In the words of a wise yellow character HA HA
Tesla made 2.8 billion last year from selling regulatory credits. So they really didn't have to care how many cars they sold. But those surely are going away, so they are going to have to do some other government handout, which Elon is probably hand picking right now.
I wonder how Tesla sales in Israel are going?
So... how long before the federal government buys up a couple million of these things...?
Time for the US military to replace all their humvees?
They just started rolling new postal trucks off the line so now seems like a good time to cancel that contract and sign a new one to replace them with Cyber trucks.
Those things are rolling IEDs. I can't even begin to imagine how that would play out.
MMW Police and the Feds in US gonna be required to only have Cybertrucks in the (dystopian) future. Welcome to Night City 2077.
It's pretty funny because they kinda look like straight out of judge dredd. The shitty one.
All they had to do was build a solid, reliable truck, and not be fascist. Instead they build a poorly glued together piece of shit and sieg heil. I fucking hate this timeline.
Don't hate the timeline, hate the news. There are real people out there still trying to make the world work, getting stepped on, pushed over, marginalized, silenced. They need you. They need all of us. Do not let The Bastards win.
(I'm still workshopping the "don't hate the player hate the game" - suggestions are welcome. Words can still inspire people, even before coffee)
Thanks, friend. Much needed words. Maybe I’ll put my decades of counter strike to good use at some point.

Cybercuck.
Well if they'd stop putting signage with "Arbeit Macht Frei" over the entrance to their factories maybe they'd do better.
Is that "all stops", as in they will get rid of that guy who very definitely did a Nazi salute?
Seriously, why the fuck is he still CEO of that company? He's actively undermining them in every way on a global scale. Tesla shareholders are idiots...
This just in: Tesla's new moniker "Arbeit Macht Frei" tracks poorly with most human beings.
There were stops left that could be removed from Cybertrucks, still?
Bit like Elon, Never lived up to the hype
i wonder when ol stinky starts pushing somekind of law that makes it mandatory to buy one
