The thing is, the solicitation was initiated under the Biden administration and when Trump/Musk found out about it, they actually halted it [0]
> Vehicles made by Elon Musk’s company were on a purchase list issued before Donald Trump was inaugurated, and before Mr. Musk became one of the president’s top advisers.[1]
Sorry, but the basis for your narrative just blew up. But I'm sure you'll try to find a way to blame Trump/Musk for this anyway.

- lenerdenator 2y agoI'll keep that in mind as a guy has his interns plumb around in sensitive government computer systems for... reasons... with no statutory or constitutional authority to do so. Completely benevolent reasons, I'm sure. You don't get to the levels of wealth that Trump and Musk have attained without thoroughly screwing over a lot of people. One contract being halted doesn't exonerate them from that.
