Odd how sentiment about Elon Musk changed rapidly...
Some HN users pointed out in the comments here that not even Teslas reach 85%. Is the article wrong?
Interesting that everyone is talking about favoriting, but no one talks the anti-favoriting of Tesla during the Biden administration. Tesla wasn't invited to any EV conference that was organized by the previous admin. They are the biggest EV factory in the US yet somehow they were never invited...smh

- tzs 1y agoOne of those was to promote EVs built with union labor. They only invited the companies with the largest union workforces. The other EV meetings organized by the Biden administration were all specifically about EVs in the context of specific legislation the administration was proposing, and they only invited companies that were supporting that legislation.
