Elon Musk, the billionaire tech guy, said that he’s gonna spend less time on DOGE and more time on Tesla starting next month. This is a big deal for Tesla investors who are sick of his politics and it might shake things up at the White House.
Musk said all this while he was talking to investors after Tesla’s profits and revenue took a nosedive in the first quarter. They’re blaming the Trump administration’s tariff plans and the general political mess for their problems.
But like, why is Elon even doing politics in the first place? His work with Trump has made Tesla a target for protests and vandalism. That can’t be good for business.
Tesla, who’s trying to get into robots now, is saying that their profits fell 71% this quarter. That’s a big drop from last year. Maybe they should’ve stuck with cars, who knows?
And get this – people are mad at Elon for not paying enough attention to Tesla. Like, maybe you should focus on your company instead of hanging out with Trump, just a thought.
Also, half the public has a negative view of Tesla and Elon Musk. Ouch. That’s gotta hurt.
The big question is – when is Elon gonna quit Trump’s team? He’s only allowed to work there for 130 days at a time, which means he might be out by the end of May. Or maybe not. Who knows with this guy.
So there you have it, folks. Elon Musk is doing stuff, Tesla is struggling, and the world keeps turning. Stay tuned for more updates.
