Musk's politics? It was Biden that chose Unions over Environmentalism and American manufacturing. Almost everything spiraled after that, to the point where people were unabashedly claiming the whole Nazi salute thing. Looking back, it was wrong to let the crazies have their way.
You don’t think that thing was a least a homage to the Nazi salute?
Unions and environmentalism are two orthogonal issues. I'm not sure how you tie those two together.
There isn't even a need to discuss the intent of the salute; just look at who he donated to and who he supported as candidates. The problem is that buyers who want EVs are much, much more likely to align with the opposite ideology.
