It's going to be hard to sell Teslas to MAGAs who you've been telling never to buy electric vehicles
It's going to be hard to sell Teslas to MAGAs who you've been telling never to buy electric vehicles
Ironic isn’t it. Reverse trolled into buying a car they hated to save the environment.
EVs of this price range are targeted towards upper class, well educated people. Not at all towards MAGAs anyway. Please don’t do as if anybody could buy a 100k car.
Will it though? They do whatever Fox and their You're Fired hero tell them to do. If Space Karen drops the price enough then look out, they will all need one to own the libs.
Not if they hear Hair Führer tell them to. Consistency isn't an issue for them.
I don’t know. They seem a bit sheep-like…
🤡’s twisting themselves into pretzels 🥨
It will shock you. That’s the difference between MAGAs and Democrats. Democrats attack and eat their own. MAGAs fall in line. Sheeple but it’s a winning strategy and Democrats will not be doing any winning anytime soon if they don’t fix up.
Maybe Tesla should start manufacturing cars that use 4x the gas of other cars to attract the MAGA consumers. Really stick it to those enviro-libs with the Tesla Guzzler.
They will make the Trump 47 special edition. It will feature a flag wrap with eagle talons and the navigation will be Trump. Guaranteed to increase in value. Your neighbors will be envious.
And ... as MAGA sees their costs rice, their jobs disappear & 401(k)s collapse, would they spend $10Ks just to prop up the fortune of the world's richest man? Are they this dumb?
Pause. Reflect. Consider who they voted for. Then ask that question again...
I love Tesler! Obligatory s/
Yeah, he’s kinda screwing himself like a rotisserie at both ends. The liberals do t want to drive a car associated with such a fascist and conservatives think electric cars are part of some gay climate change conspiracy or something. Not a lot of middle ground there.
"Screwing himself like a rotisserie". I'm dying.
I always called it a spit roast
And HE created all of that. Poor Elonia.
Typical Republican hypocrisy
This is when you shit on your customers. You know the "lunatic lefties" who like windmills and electric cars.
Respectfully, sir, with tears in my eyes, no it won’t. If 🍊says buy, they buy.
No, it won't. Logical inconsistency and ignoring history is the core trait of MAGA. Someone will figure out how to get a cybertruck to "roll coal", it's just a matter of time now.
No it won't. These people have no problem changing their entire worldview on a dime based on nothing but a word from Dear Leader.
Happy someone else said it
Us everyday folk can't afford them 🤪
Do they have electricity in the south?
Honestly at this point I think they will do whatever their cult leader tells them to do
Putin's played a blinder there
If you’re embarrassed you’re driving a nazi car then offload it to a MAGA. Easy marks. Lots of other great EVs to choose from.
All he has to do is paint it shiny gold and give it a too long red stripe down the center. They have the memories of goldfish and like fish, they are attracted to shiny hooks that will kill them.
I beg to differ. He flip flops regularly and his cult always manage to twist the logic to suit.
Going from “Roll Coal” to ev doubt it.
I don't know if you've been paying attention, but MAGA can change their minds on a dime and go hard in the other direction for literally no reason other than their glorious leader told them to.
Not just buying one but being seen in one. It's a dilemma for the Red Hats. But it's clear how they'll respond. They're not skilled at walking the walk. Tesla is going to have an even bigger owie.
Most MAGA supporters can not afford to buy this piece of shit🤷♀️🤦♀️
I think you underestimate MAGAs proclivity to abandon any position they have when daddy tells them too.
they don't have the funds
Nope. MAGAs are maga because it is easy and cheap to hate. Coming up with 50k to support Trump is a whole different ballgame. That will not work.
The cheapest car yesterday was $60k. 🤣
100% agreed. This group flip flops like fish out of water on every single topic if that’s what they are told to by their cult.
we'll on the bright side they are closer to voting for AOC or some lefty who will run
Seriously
Youre grossly underestimating how absolutely stupid these people are...
And hurting Their economy.
Please. This is the same crowd that went from "eggs are too expensive" to "recessions are a necessary pain" from "drain the swamp" to cronyism and nepotism. They will do whatever the predator tells them to do.
No it's not. MAGA followers do what they are told, no matter what.
nah you can sell anything to magas if you tell them it makes liberals mad
"They don’t go far. They cost a fortune." "Electric cars are good if you have a towing company."
When the wind doesn't blow, they stop working. Darling, the car won't work. It's not windy today. 🤣
MAGA are submissive from birth. They’ll do whatever the Muskrat and #Krasnov tell them to do.
They can cash out what is left of their retirement and live in it
Idk if trump tells them to they will do it . They flipped on everything else why not this.
No problem, MAGA supporters cannot afford them.
I will never own a Tesla. You’re a piece of shit in the state of Arizona. The heat here kills the battery. Plus I don’t like them.
True but it'll be much harder selling them to anyone else. #Trumpslump
I'm just asking, but isn't that illegal? i mean, it's is like taking an open bribe. Elon gets him elected, and then Trump sells Tesla's from the Whitehouse lawn.
No it's not, they'll do whatever trump says even if it goes against everything they stand for. I don't get it.
They'll do as they're told. The biggest obstacle will be income levels.
Number of MAGAs who have the disposable cash to buy a $50+k car:
Most MAGA I know are high school drop outs who barely can afford rent and groceries because they work barely above minimum wage jobs. 🤷🏻♀️
Yeah, sadly you have to go at it with that angle and not "because their leader is a Nazi". That would actually endear them to the brand.
Most can't afford one anyway, I'd guess
They have no idea that Canada is bigger than the USA and think it could be a state , I don’t think reasoning or critical thinking skills are a maga strong point. They do and think what they’re told
Folks in my circle are holding off on making any major purchases and buying a product from someone who is causing it is definitely a no go. These dumbasses can't figure out that people won't spend $$ on big purchases during a recession.
They don’t get irony David - they only do what he tells them to.
And who don't have access to charging stations
No…Trump can sell MAGA anything, anywhere, anytime for any reason at any price.
90% can't afford them anyway
I'm not convinced. #MAGA claim to be Christians, they support a rapist. #Maga claim to be moral, they support an adulterer. #Maga claims to be truthful, they support someone on record telling 50,000 lies. #MAGA claims to support police, yet they support a convicted felon and the Jan6insurrection.
Until Trump tells ðem to, ðey will eat any shit his pumping
leon sputnik....he's deranged, another monkee on druggs
The MAGA cult haven't met a position they couldn't reverse on (and explain away) when their cult leader says so.
You mean ”Teslers”?
Pretty sure the cult mentality will prevail over any genuine ideology over energy. AKA: WTF I love electric cars now.
Racist Twister
I honestly wouldn't rule out a government bailout of Tesla similar to the one Trump 1.0 gave the farmers.
That is the fact that makes no sense with Musks move....
Conspiracy theory: - airplane crashes to reduce air travel/emissions - market crash to lower household consumerism&meat consumption - Tesla culture war to make EVs accessible to the right - pandemic was climate initiative all along - dig more oil and gas to…oh right nvm ya they HATE the environment
Even if you never told them that, MAGA voters are hugely disproportionately living in sparker areas (rural, exurban, etc.) Where EVs are still genuinely impactical
Sparser*
Not when the order comes straight from Dear Leader.
They bought crypto, nfts, ugly shoes and everything else. The only reason they wont buy tesla is because at least some of them are broke.
I don’t think most of them can even afford one.
Most of them wouldn’t buy one if you put a gun to their head.
It's one thing to hawk bibles and coins. Asking his base to spend 40k + on an electric vehicle and at the same time eliminating the drive to install more charging ports is a tough sell. I have no doubts they would like to please their master but they ain't shilling out 40k+ in this economy
The Tesla brand is toxic for both sides of the political spectrum.
And they are not the target demographic. Ironically it’s the progressive left that are now voting with their feet in droves that are Tesler’s main customers.
They will buy whatever their Orange God tells them to buy.
Oh the irony. Good luck losers.
Too much logic from you this week, Pakman!
There are better quality electric vehicles than a tesla anyway.
😜
Bought a model three Tesla 4+ years ago… before I realized Elmo was a complete asshole… Certainly doubting my automotive choice… Hopefully I can trade it in for a nice Chevy
They have no core beliefs, so whatever dear leader pivots to is what they'll embrace Dads (male caregivers), please hug your kids so they don't end up like this...worshipping a sociopath bc they crave patriarchal affection
Isn't it funny Elon has all these Achilles heels on both sides and somehow still winning at capitalism?
Nah. They’ll go along if Trump says so.
It’s the same predicament he found himself with promoting the success of ‘Operation Warp Speed’ that led to the Covid vaccine. 🤡
Ya think?
They were also told to avoid Satan and big city con men.
…and MAGAs whose personal economies have been gutted. Food>>Tesla
They only make it to the candy store ..I watched that speech.
It could be a clever way of making gas guzzlers into electric vehicle owners.
Truth!! I believe that most EV buyers ARE NOT MAGA (or Republican). As an EV owner (Ioniq5 not Tesla), I just don't believe the average person on the other side is that open minded......lol
MAGA won’t remember they are opposed to electric vehicles…they will follow that clown Rump off the nearest cliff…just like the Dodo bird scene in Ice Age 😂
Ford Lighting sounds like a better choice for them.
Pro-tip: If you have MAGA friends or relatives that haven't been online in the last few days, call them and tell them that no matter what Trump says, they have to consider buying an EV. That will be an amusing argument, but even better will be the next conversation you have with them!
The whiplash is real.
Like popular YouTube Mechanic Scotty Kilmer says: Those who wanted electric cars, already bought them. People who hate electric cars will never own one and many who already own one, will never buy another. Trump went from trash talking, to owning one and making a commercial in doing so.
It would be a hoot, tho....and then they'll demand charging infrastructure. Could be some spiked lemonade.
😂😂
Also most of whom live paycheck to paycheck and drive old Ford and Chevy trucks that they can fix themselves because they can’t afford a Tesla (or any other new vehicle, electric or otherwise) and even though they get like 10 mpg and can’t afford the gas, they will never get rid of the truck.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😉
It's a cult. If he told them to stop breathing tomorrow, they'd sell keel over trying to make it happen. Trump needs to be removed from office now. Jokes over.
We really need more rough & tumble progressives who aren't afraid of all that bureaucracy "oh we need to agree and bend the knee to trump or our rich donors" bs, who will actively serve on behalf of working class people & especially the marginalized no matter the political/financial repercussions
I'm sick and disgusted about the emptiness of the so called "Trump resistance party" with their "let's just stall and ignore constituents as well as ask for people's $ while we backtrack and put up a fake fight while we do insider trading and establishment nonsense"
Also, tax the rich, including the rich Democrats and especially the maga kleptocrats
Most homes don't have electrical outlets to plug in and charge EVs, and the cost of installing said outlet is outrageous. And really, how many maga can afford a $60K+ POS that catches fire?
Ah, how many Base Dwellers can afford 85k and up for a Tesla? I would guess not many. Next Whitehouse swapmeet bring out the tables and Easy-Ups. a Sell cheap Chinese made crap like Trump memorabilia, action figures, mugs, hats and Tees. Con Man Don.
Drill baby drill - oh I meant , plug in, plug in!!😂😂
I'm not so sure. The true maga cult will turn on a dime if trump/elon tells them to. But, some are coming out of their self induced delusion.
Except that with cuts to Medicaid and Medicare they will have to pay their hospital bills and move grandma back home so money will be tight.
For those of them who actually care about Grandma.
