  1. The subsidies bit is highly misleading, Tesla never lobbied nor advocated subsidies (GM did) they suggested instead to eliminate fossil fuel subsidies or a carbon tax to partially level the playing field. The DOE loan Tesla received was paid back with early penalties and interest, GM and F got 50X bigger loans that they will never be able to pay back. Tesla declined a Euro $1.5B grant and apposed similar from the BBB bill. Plus Elon paid $11B just in income taxes just for last yr that's vastly beyond any "assistance" said companies received. SpaceX saved taxpayers $100's of millions.

  2. FAR scarier than another Mr. T. Administration is the Leftist authoritarianism and Ministry of Truth mentality. Quit attempting to silence the opposition, instead engage them in discussion/debate.
