Yesterday evening, Tesla reported first-quarter earnings for 2025, and they were abysmal: Profits dropped 71% from the same time last year.
Musk sounded bitter on the call with investors that followed, blaming the company’s misfortune on protesters who have raged at Tesla dealerships around the world over his role running DOGE and his ardent support of far-right politicians.
“The protests that you’ll see out there, they’re very organized. They’re paid for,” he said, without evidence.
Tesla stock went up after the earnings.
What a fucking joke.
Based on him saying he was leaving the deeply unpopular and public slashing of the federal government.
The market seriously thinks Tesla will be selling well again when hes not wearing MAGA hats so publicly.
