Did he consider putting tariffs on winds blowing from China’s direction? Should probably also deport everyone who speaks Chinese or ever saw a Chinese movie or read a book (doesn’t have to be Chinese, any book at this point might be dangerous for those morons).

Why would the US government investigate, if they are sending people abroad to avoid questions?

As a European I can advise that if serious concerns don’t work, you should try drawing wholesome pictures with a chalk next to the White House, and then, if necessary you may even try illuminating courts with national colors… But that should probably be the last resort.

Translation: used Teslas are now so unpopular, that only people regularly bombarded by Russia are willing to buy them (they probably dustrust Chinese cars more).

He is absolutely likely to try it again, or perhaps worse, if released.

That would justify the life penalty (if proven), it exists for a reason.

You are right, but there probably is a “safe” number of Teslas that can burn, before insurance companies drop Tesla (or increase insurance prices to make it unprofitable).

Insurance frauds, if not caught, tend to be profitable.

Edit: I just want to add that I do not have any personal experience with insurance frauds… It’s just my little conspiracy theory… I won’t respond anymore, must go and make my first tinfoil cap.

I don’t know what insurance rules look like when you are a billion dollar business, but I would assume they have a much better negotiating position.

I’m not saying that the renewal cost won’t go up, but I assume it won’t go up as fast and as steep as it would for us poor people.

I mean Tesla. Just imagine, you have a lot of unsold cars and no hope that people will rush to buy them. If you lower the price, you will admit to shareholders that it’s not going well and maybe your company is not worth more than the next eight biggest car manufacturers combined… So you can’t lower the price, at least not enough to sell all those cars, they all take space, need some maintenance, slowly rust and lose value… Or they can just burn, and you can claim that it was all because of those far left terr… Right, someone mentioned that insurance doesn’t cover terrorism, so it’s all because of those damn leftist hooligans. You would probably sold all of them, but they were destroyed. Pinky promise.

Ok, let’s negotiate. How about this: I’ll buy one Big Mac, and in return US will buy 3000 Volkswagens, 1500 Mercedes(es?!?) and at least 3 French or Italian cars…

That way the US ends up with good cars, and I am willing to risk my own health in order to improve the relations.

The whole internet seems happy about the “people” burning Teslas in protest. I am pretty sure they were all insured and given the terrible sales figures… please guess who is benefitting the most of that burning?

The poster is wrong! Tesla never delivered the full self driving. Only the full self ruling.

Why is that embarrassing? Trump offers trade war, EUs counterproposal is tread deal. Much better to all involved… and also Trump most likely won’t agree.

Yes, those are for rich people. Law doesn’t apply to rich people in the US

I was today’s years old (and that is a lot) when I found out Usenet is still alive and can be used to get… Hmmm… Entertainment. Where should I start if I want to get rid of Netflix?

But that would raise entitled communist brats, who think that grown ups will just feed them for free… Like… Who do you think is going to work at McDonald’s or in mines after they deport all immigrants?!? Kids need to stay hungry to be more motivated to work /S

My guess is that Tesla managers decided it’s better to cash out the insurance money instead of storing the (swasti)cars that almost nobody will buy. And you can always blame the anti Musk “terrorists”.

Apparently free speech absolutist means “absolutely no free speech” according to fElon.

Deport to El Salvador Prison

trans people’s fault that cis people are burning Tesla cars

Elonia is trying to tell us something.
