I'm honestly unsure what he has to gain by doing this. I can't imagine that the departure of the counsel isn't related. Maybe the GC announced he was leaving and that rattled Musk somehow? Very strange.
- JustSomeNobody 8y agoHe wants attention. Good, bad or otherwise.
- fwip 8y agoYep. Musk is a manchild with too much money and an ego to match.
- elihu 8y agoSometimes people do things that neither they nor anyone else gains from.
- pbreit 8y agoThe tweet was obviously meant to highlight how the company has gone from 0 cars to x00,000 in just 8 years. Not a new, formal estimate.
- elliekelly 8y agoI suspect you have the cause/effect of the GC leaving backwards.
- PhantomGremlin 8y agoExactly. On Feb 19 Elon Musk tweets 500K cars. On Feb 20 Tesla General Counsel, after 2 months on the job, says "fuck this, I'm too old to put up with this shit, I'm outta here". Actually the GC was a little more diplomatic. As CNBC put it: A person familiar with the matter said he was not a good cultural fit with Tesla and wanted to return to his family and law practice in Washington, D.C.
