He did. But he stole it from the US government / tax payers. Every president since Obama has fallen over themselves to pour tax payer money into his arsehole. And he is living the high life because of it. This is literally what the US wants. They love subsidising this bitch.
I find it funny how Europeans have organised a more cohesive anti trump movement than Americans have. Truly no county has more of a boot lickjng culture than the "land of the free"
I say this as an American.
You're all better than us, a lot of people here voted for the Trump, and most of us are so successfully deluded by oligarch propaganda that many blame our powerless, homeless neighbors that we abandoned and betrayed for what the owners inflict on us.
We are gaslit beyond all hope. We can't even agree as a society that our children should be fed, and this madness of greed and demented levels of toxic individualism didn't start with Trump. It boggles my mind that people have actually wanted to immigrate here in my 40 years living inside this cesspool, only good at being an exporter of death and state mandated avarice.
Unless you're wealthy, or are sociopathic enough to become so because sociopathy is what we reward, this is a garbage place of largely garbage people. Most here would rather burn ourselves and the world than disempower our capitalists, as that would be "socialism," a word our captured government rebranded as a boogieman and that, by design, most Americans couldn't actually define with access to one of our underfunded libraries and a gun to their head.
While I agree with you, don't forget we don't have him as our leader with his gangster powers to make you disappear. Easier to call him out at that point.
I appreciate the comment, we made our bed when a gun wasn't to our head. Twice.
And I'll argue to the end of the world that Reagan did more harm to this country and the world than Trump can ever hope to. You don't get to Trump without the Economic betrayal, getting the people's opposition party permanently on the oligarch take, and the war on science/knowledge/facts/education that get in the way of short term private profit without the Reagan/Welch revolution, that infected Europe too sadly, notably cooperation of message with that bitch Thatcher. The UK is basically a little Forward Operating Base for our greed disease and conversion of nation states into exploiters of their people now.
Trump is just the latest rot of the corpse of the shitty nation Reagan killed. He just isn't remembered that way because feigned statesmanship as he sold us off piece by piece and set this slow coup in motion.
Don't. Give. Your. Economic. Elite. A. Single. Centimeter. It's too late for us, but you can be saaaaaaaaaaaaaved.
Reagan started it, but Trump intends to finish it, and turn the US into a full dictatorship. There is a very real possibility of no elections in 2028...
Hear me now believe me later, he has already chosen his successor in Elon Muck...
Al though I agree with a lot of what you say, I do follow some decent Americans on YouTube. There are also anti capitalist and free thinkers out there, but you know how it goes anywhere on the globe: the stupid are the loudest.
From what I see on YouTube, there are still a lot of people in the US who do boycott, who do protest. It is just that media does not show it. You know how media is. The good thing is you donโt need most of the chunk of the population to protest, but if the few percentage that do last long enough, you can make a change.
From what I see people organise themselves, and have strategies on how to act. And long enough boycotts are effective. You had in US history such effective boycotts. And people who are not willing to boycott or protest now, might slowly dip their toes into this mindset if there are enough examples for long enough around them.
Do not despair, if you do, they win. Act in any way you can, even if only boycotting the big players. Build communities and rely on yourselves. I mean, look at all the countries that are boycotting also. Their wallets will be affected and they will get scared.
A lot of Americans have drowned in the shit that comes from the Bullshit Mountain Ranges of Fox News, OANN and NewsMax, and whatever is on right wing talk radio these days.
Which is why a lot of them feared communism/socialism, if they voted for a Democrat. Which, looking from outside in, is so laughable, but the insidious nature of right wing propaganda has worked wonders.
The entire country is going to need a kind of deprogramming the likes of which no one has ever seen.
Hey UK!
Can we just try not to be last for once, please?
One of the issues with these percentage stats is that we were not as big of purchasers of Tesla as the rest of Europe so it's going to be harder for us to have as large of drops.
If you look, France has dropped that much just to catch up with us.
Even before the others dropped you were 3rd most out of 8.
Now you're 1st most.
The graph is missing headers so not sure, but UKโs numbers are highest here
Being last is what we do best
I'm doing my part. I can't afford a Swasticar anyway.
I can afford a bunch of Nazi stickers, though!
This is the best way to strike back against Musk.
Hit his pocketbook. Tank his net worth.
Tank his net worth.
It's not just his personal worth. Twitter purchase was/is largely dependent on Tesla stock. So he's not only losing his own credit and should the trend continue some big players in investment business won't be happy either. He has been an useful idiot on raising the stock prices, but he is very much sacrificial if the things go too far. I don't know why he hasn't been replaced already, but the trend in US of A seems to be that you can do whatever stupid shit you can come up with and keep doing that without consequences. So maybe the big players are still benefiting from what he and the other guy are doing.
When The stock market crash's you can buy into companies quite cheap.
The EV market is crashing. If you exclude Tesla from the figures, the EV market is up 13%.
Good. I hope he's angry about it. It would make me very happy.
He is. And sad. But he says he doesn't understand where this hate comes from. Real genius, that guy.
I still find it hilarious that he supposedly has a 165 IQ when everytime he opens his mouth he sounds so unintelligent and stumbles over words and uses meme language. I have never heard that man say a single intelligent thing in all the time I have known of his existence.
I wonder what Chinese bloke he hired to take his IQ test for him.
I dont think people grasp that he doesnt really care about tesla anymore, his shareholders are having a stroke, but he personally, has other sources of wealth that are more important to his megalomania now, namely starlink and spacex, and all the government subsidies that come from them.
at the end of the day, tesla is just a car company, and when you're a megalomaniac trying to design the entire world to your liking, thats small fry stuff
That's why we need to elect someone who will get the ball rolling on jailing Musk.
Swasticar becoming unpopular. About time.
These guys want to be like Russia and other 'strong men' led countries so bad, let them have a Russian economy, and the same worldwide product 'dominance' as Russia too.
Damn, dude! The Lada was shit, but it wasn't a Tesla!
Anna needs to learn the difference between a total and an average
I know what you saying but the average would be adding those percentages together and dividing by the number of countries listed, which is -44.7% and is not getting the total sales for each year across all countries and get that -47.7% shown as total and is a more meaningful number because those markets are different sizes
Your post has been removed for promoting violence /s
Nice. Remove the nazimobil from our roads.
Where Italy?
South of the alps. Big peninsula, looks like a boot. Can't miss it.
Then why do I miss it so much?
Probably the food...
Apart from the food, sanitation, medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh-water system and public health...
Down 55% according to Reuters (although these numbers don't match up with the ones in the post, so they're probably not directly comparable in some way)
Not to trow sand in the gears, but let's wait until the numbers after the launch of the new model Y comes in. Some buyers might waiting for that one.
Lots of other car manufacturers also have new models on the market in 2025.
Some buyers might want to get those.
Quick, somebody tell him that changing models from X to Y makes the cars trans.
Hypocrite feels (says) what?
Fuck him and his shitty vehicles
