Elon’s mad because Trump’s tax bill hits EVs, solar, and clean tech—everything Musk depends on. It’s not principle. It’s personal. But he’s not wrong: this bill is a fossil fuel fever dream.

He really is a MAGA idiot: only cares when things impact them directly
I’ll maybe have a bit more interest in what Elon has to say after he spends $250+ million on getting Trump out of office. Maybe. Probably not. But maybe.
Oh yeah its personal. He was told he bought power. I would burn the city down if I was swindled like Elon. He'd of been much wealthier just sticking to Harris red tape. He is right though.... in the same way tucker Carlson was right.
"Sir! 😢... we need more oil, coal and gas...what if tomorrow the sun explodes or the earth stops spinning on its axis!?"
Of course, it isn't the principle. Musk has none. That being said, I agree with him. MAGA is on track to make America trail the world in technical innovation. They'll have the US covered in smog to power cheap data processing that'll eventually be obsolete as the world moves on without us.
I generally wonder if they just like burning stuff and go vrum-vrum, is it possible to make them sign on to putting more TAX insentive into R&D for things like plant based bio-diesel or ethnol which is also carbon neutral~
China will take the lead in clean energy and the US will become a small petulant child, lashing out at everyone crying why it isn't world leader in anything anymore. The damage Trump and MAGA is doing to the US is enormous, maybe even permanent.
And Elon wasn't aware of Trump's priorities until now?
He should have spent his money much more wisely before the election!
Elon created this monster.The Trump campaign was a 3 legged stool,Heritage Foundation,Crypto Tech Bros & America First MAGA. Musk was one leg of the stool & could have pulled his support to Trump any time.The Dems want clean energy.Elon let his racism rule his political leanings & now has regrets.
Yes, but progressives hate him anyway, they won’t buy from him
America's credibility is being shredded. The US dollar is close to no longer being the world's reserve currency.
How’s it feel, Elon, to have people in power taking away from your livelihood because they can? Welcome to the middle class!
I was grimly amused to see Elmo's dismay over the impact that this bill is likely to have on his businesses. This on top of the ongoing boycott of Tesla. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
I didn't read the Tweets. Does Elmo apologize for doing what he could to turn the US government to the most vile people who have ever ruled in the US?
I was wondering if Elon would fade into the moonlight on a desperate quest to repair his reputation and his companies. I have to say I’m quite amused that he’s turned around and doubled down on the haterade. Sadly, many people to think he’s cool and he still has the power to change minds.
FU Elon. You KNEW this would happen, you just THOUGHT uncle Don Donny loved your special K ass more than us. Well, dumbass, so did Ernst Röhm. Also, the TESLERRR you sold him is wasting away in the salt air of Mar a Largo. Maybe it's crappy build will go thermal runaway and fry the Don's Castle.
Didn’t Trump hold an auto sales on the White House lawn just a few months ago , saying how he was going to bye one of Elon’s cars now it’s know one wants an electric vehicle, I’m confused which is it
But watch how fast he changes his mind if they do a carve out for his businesses.
Ironically had he done nothing, Elon would not have nearly the negative perception he does now. Well...not 'as' negative anyways. Tesla would still be well-liked, EV credits would almost still be a thing, and he could still get gov contracts aplenty if Kamala was POTUS. But his ego demanded more.
It's been a little galling watching people celebrate Musk's loss on this one. Because it's really everyone's loss.
Jalf of Eloon's wealth is SpsceX and half is Trsla. Eloon is mostly mad because there's no Return to the Moon-On to Mars for SpaceX. He was foolishly counting on that after ISS is de-orbited. Tesla is suffering since Eloon pissed in his own punch bowl. So, hello zugzwang.
My enemy's enemy is my friend.
You get what you pay… never with trump. He screws everyone.
This propping up of the fossil fuel industry is a ridiculous, anti-science, and anti-logic proposal; even compared to the previous decades of market manipulation and subsidies.
The rest of the world will move forward with green energy and Trump is taking this country back to the 19th century (in more ways than one...)
A liberal says, "This should never happen to anyone." A Conservative says, "This should never happen to me." A MAGA says, "Why is this happening to me?! Why am I the victim?! Whose fault is this?! You're to blame!!!"
The people will rise.
Maybe he should have sent his goons to the heritage foundation headquarters!
