Elon Musk moved to Texas and now appears to embrace the politics of the Republic Party and Texas Governor Greg AbbottIn the weeks since Tesla CEO Elon Musk began his gambit to acquire Twitter, he’s grown comfortable voicing partisan political views—usually on the social media platform he covets—including insults aimed at California, President Joe Biden and “the libs.
“Nobody ever accused Elon Musk of gratitude—or even a sense of proportion,” says Mary Nichols, former chair of California’s powerful Air Resources Board, which crafted the ZEV program and championed Tesla as it evolved from a startup to high-volume manufacturer. “He certainly would not be where he is without the ZEV mandate and the cash he got from selling his credits to the other OEMs.
The billionaire’s confirmation that he would invite former President Donald Trump back to Twitter after his ban for comments supporting the Jan. 6 insurrection and lies about the 2020 election was cheered by some conservatives. Likewise, Musk’s intention to make the platform welcoming for controversial views in pursuit of an absolutist view of free speech has, including Representatives Marjorie Taylor Green and Matt Gaetz and Fox News’s Tucker Carlson.
His newfound conservative orientation carries both risks and a potential upside for Tesla, says auto-industry analyst Ed Kim. “When government rather than the market routinely selects the winners and losers, enterprises cannot predict their prospects, and free enterprise is replaced with crony capitalism,” Romney said in a March 2012 speech in Santa Barbara, California. “Solyndra, Ener1, Fisker and Tesla are examples.”
And fools call Elon a genius
I live in California. And, I don’t feel bashed by Elon Musk. What does this say about your article?
Damn straight. I’ve wanted a Tesla for a long time and I will tell you that now I NEVER want to buy one.
Lol! These Forbes people are ridiculous and living in a fake world! Its like saying black people shouldnt be seeking freedom from slave owners because they would bite the hand that fed them!!!unbelievable!
Good, keep bashing the lunatic governments
California and Democrats didn't feed Elon. Elon fed himself. He had the money to do it. Tesla he did all by himself with the help of technologies. Many people stuck with him from California.
He is standing up for he believes. This is America right? Garbage journalism!
Psssst He’s moved Tesla to Texas.
It’s clear that the hand that feeds Forbes are Democrats. King Ape is pretty sure that the 13% additional tax CA charges elonmusk is not worth it. Can you say TEXAS!? Also I don’t agree with any party nor care about political parties. I’m moved to speak facts.
Proof Musk is only about 'his' money and his ignorance.
Naw, every lion will will eventually devour the zoo keeper, given the opportunity.
How dare he, he should stay in line like us gays and people of colour, right?
This narrative is tiring. The fact that they (democrats) don't support him when he voices a contrasting opinion to their own illustrates that they never really supported sustainable tech. Sure Tesla started in California which is predominantly Democrat but Tesla's global now.
The perfect example of 500 ml. bots crashing the party.
Democrats are destroying what made America.🇺🇸
I didn’t know that US citizens are supposed to sell their soul to politicians in exchange of following laws passed by the same politician ! I am sure even arrogant organization like Forbes can figure it out .
I see Forbes is now on the bandwagon too.
Elon Musk is from South Africa you know history White Minority been in power for years and he born there he has views that's why he like trump I hope he does't get twitter.
What’s up with all the elon articles all of a sudden? 🧐
It’s official Forbes is fake news and not worth reading
