Elon Muskās polarizing political actions since acquiring Twitter, later rebranded X, in 2022 dramatically hurt the automakerās U.S. sales, underscoring how deeply its fortunes are intertwined with the billionaireās persona.
The findings quantify for the first time how the political actions of the worldās wealthiest person ā including his role in U.S. President Donald Trumpās administration ā may have cost Tesla billions in lost vehicle sales while benefiting rival electric carmakers.
Teslaās U.S. sales would have been between 67% and 83% higher, or about 1 million to 1.26 million additional vehicles, from October 2022 to April 2025, had it not been for what researchers call the āMusk partisan effect,ā according to a working paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research by Yale University economists.



Idk why youāre getting so mad about semantics, Iām just saying that piece of shit Elon Musk never had a position and never will.
Itās weird to pretend that Iām mad when Iām simply correcting you. Iām just saying that Elon Musk was the head of Doge and I donāt see any reason to pretend he wasnāt, especially because the administration would like to pretend that.
You insinuated that I was drinking piss, thats not normal behavior and you should see a professional about your mentality.
I apologize. I was trying to make a joke, but it came across more rudely than it sounded in my head. I was alluding to the common saying.
I forgive you, Iām sorry for misinterpreting you.
