Previous administration was same way… intentionally not including Tesla in an EV summit
- megabless123 4mo ago> intentionally not including Tesla in an EV summit this comparison is orders of magnitude different
- sailingparrot 4mo agoThis is lacking any nuance. The CEO not being invited to a meaningless ceremony vs being designated a supply chain risk by the DoD and being forced to shut down your product. Use judgment.
- smallmancontrov 4mo agoIt's astonishing how that summit sparkles the Tesla sowflakes. We gave them tens of billions of dollars in subsidies and a 100% tariff on the Chinese competition! Huge, substantive policy assistance! But Biden wanted to pal around with some union supporters and that's supposed to be some horrible slight? Please. Elon didn't drop millions on the Trump campaign and throw a double Sieg Heil at the 2025 US presidential inauguration because Biden refused a photo-op. He did those things because he believes in them, because he believes the things he says on twitter. The EV summit thing is the least believable "you made me do it" excuse I've ever seen.
- iknowstuff 4mo agoYou'll notice the tariffs were helping legacy auto more than Tesla

- nativeit 4mo agoOr that the tariffs were ham-fisted, arbitrary, and lacking in rational justifications. I’m not sure one can draw too many firm conclusions from that particular “policy”.
- iknowstuff 4mo agoNo they were simply meant to help UWA workers.
- skywhopper 4mo agoGive me a break with this. You are not so thick as to think the two things are remotely comparable.
- edaemon 4mo agoWasn't that a UAW summit about EVs? Tesla does not work with UAW, so they wouldn't appear at a UAW event.
