Elon Musk is the biggest federal government teet sucker in history, the wealthiest man in the world on the backs of American taxpayers, and the biggest hypocrite about it

 

The hypocrite:

Elon Musk: Many Bureaucrats, Like Samantha Power, Are Getting Wealthy At Taxpayers Expense 

 

 

The grifter:

As Musk works to slash federal spending, his own firms have received billions in government contracts

Over the last decade, Musk's companies SpaceX and Tesla were awarded at least $18 billion in federal contracts, according to spending data -- with SpaceX winning more than $17 billion worth of contracts since 2015.

 

And don't forget the benefit of the government coin in the till for every Tesla purchased: 

Maybe the two best things about Marco Rubio are his condemnations of China for persecuting the Uyghur Muslims and of Tesla for opening a store where they live

 You go, Little Marco.

You say Uyghur and I say Uighur . . ..

Every single dollar spent by government is a dollar thrown into the fire, except for those handed directly to Elon Musk for every Tesla sold, so Trump adding a new Department of Government Efficiency is extremely amusing

Yeah, let's put the HOG feeding at the government trough and getting filthy stinking rich off electric car subsidies and tax credits, and government rocket contracts, in charge of government efficiency.

 

 

 Trump announces Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy to lead new ‘Department of Government Efficiency’ 

What a bunch of phony baloney plastic banana good time rock 'n rollas. 

"Government efficiency" is one of those oxymorons that is more equal than other oxymorons.

Tesla will just have to install fossil-fuel-powered battery heaters to warm the batteries enough to charge in ARCTIC temperatures lol

 Tesla owners in freezing Chicago stuck in 'car graveyards' as vehicles won't charge

I mean, what could go wrong?

 

Reuters got it right, CNBC green lunatics try to soften the blow: "Rental giant Hertz dumps EVs, including Teslas, for gas cars"

Jan 11 (Reuters) - Rental firm Hertz Global Holdings (HTZ.O) is selling about 20,000 electric vehicles, including Teslas, from its U.S. fleet about two years after a deal with the automaker to offer its vehicles for rent, in another sign that EV demand has cooled.

Hertz will instead opt for gas-powered vehicles, it said on Thursday, citing higher expenses related to collision and damage for EVs even though it had aimed to convert 25% of its fleet to electric by 2024 end.
