“Rąb, if you hate Elon Musk.” Two -thirds of Americans say that they would not buy Tesla

“Rąb, if you hate Elon.” Protests against the company created by the richest American have already spilled beyond the United States. Took place in London and Berlin.

– Elon Musk tries to destroy democracy around the world with his billions. It's unacceptable. In addition, he supports the far -right populists like Afd. It is also unacceptable. As for Tesla, we have been opposed to the factory in Grünheide for years, which takes drinking water and pollute it. We say this clear “no” – comments Sarah Walther, participant in the protest in front of the Tesla salon in Berlin.

On Saturday, there were protests against Musk in many countries. According to the organizers, the initiative called Take Tesla Down, or “destroy Tesla”, to stop “harmful to democracy” by Elon Musk. Seven Tesla cars parked under the salon of the brand burned in German Bremen. The services say it is too early to combine this event with protests.

– We received a call for a fire around 3:30 in the morning. On the spot, we realized that it would be a serious firefighting action. We asked for support four nearby guard units, because all burning cars were electric and we needed more firefighters – says Ernst Peymann from the fire brigade in Ottersberg.

The fire in Ottersberg was so serious that the services recommended the inhabitants of the salon to close the windows due to potentially toxic smoke.

Tesla shares, which from the election of Donald Trump as president of the United States were systematically expensive, from January 21 scored a 39 % drop in price. Some investors appeal to the politically engaged founder of the brand to give up the position.

– Time for someone else to direct Tesla. This interest has been neglected for too long. Tesla does too many important things, so Elon should either go back to being the president of Tesla and give up other tasks, or focus on working for the government and find a better boss for Tesla – says in an interview with Sky News Ross Gerber, the investor.

According to the NBC News, Americans are unfavorable to the billionaire's actions. While the very concept of the Government Performance Department assessed positively, its originator himself met with a negative assessment of most respondents (51 percent assessed it negatively).

– It was predictable that there would be at least several Soros agents in the audience. Say hello from me George! – Yes, Elon Musk, the head of the American Department of Government performance and the richest man in the world, reacted to criticism during the last meeting with the inhabitants of Wisconsin. An election campaign to the State Supreme Court is underway. Judging by the billionaire's involvement, he does not intend to withdraw from politics.

– In Washington, we see really crazy things. It turns out that every federal judge can block the actions of the President of the United States. It's crazy. It must end at federal and state level – said Elon Musk.

This criticism of the Tri -power of power is just one example of Elon Musk's involvement in the election campaign. His people collect signatures for petition against judges of activists, i.e. what the billionaire calls the politicization of the courts. He supports the republican candidate with $ 12 million. He donated to votes who had already voted, checks worth a million dollars.

– Elon Musk got involved in this race, voluntarily allocating millions of dollars to the campaign on behalf of Brad Schimel. So I think that it has become partly an assessment of whether public opinion supports what Trump does. In turn, democrats resist and ask the country to change the direction – comments Barry Burden, a political scientist from the University of Wisconsin -Madison.

Elections to the Supreme Court in Wisconsin are a kind of plebiscite in which voters will be in favor or against Trump's policy. For the Democratic Party, it is the first opportunity since the presidential election to show that it is able to fight the Republicans.
