According to a recent survey, Tesla's reputation is plunging, which could be due to Musk's off-putting and problematic behavior.

    To this day, you can still find conservative media that shits on anyone with electric vehicles, for some reason.

    Now Musk opened his mouth and said stupid shit, and the other side doesn’t want his cars either. All he’s got left are the people who don’t care, already bought one, or fall over themselves to kiss his feet.

      A lot of the conservative world seems to be conditioned to be anti-EV.

          No doubt, but was it worth it for them?

          Whether it was their doing or the natural gullibility of their base, it has worked incredibly well.

          I was going to make a comment about “look who they want to make President again,” but they have been denying reality for decades.
