> Musk needs deregulation to keep autopilot on the market and Tesla on the road. Wait, what? Tesla is only still a company because of EV credits from Democrats. Several of his companies would still hugely benefit from Democratic tax credits for clean energy and batteries, too. He has plenty to gain from Democrats. I think his politics are more about Covid and pro-labor regulations than anything else. I don't think they're good business for him in the long-run, especially as he has started to turn off a lot of the people who should be enthusiastic EV customers.
