There have been a number of attacks targeting Tesla vehicles and dealerships in the last few weeks.

President Donald Trump has suggested sending people who are attacking Tesla to prisons in El Salvador if they are convicted of crimes, as a number of the automaker’s vehicles and showrooms have been targeted by reported arson and other violence.

Trump’s comments appear to be referencing a deal his administration made with El Salvador to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members from the U.S. to serve out their jail time. Rights groups have criticized the deal, citing harsh conditions in Salvadoran prisons.

    Business/tech conservatives fucking love them. And a lot of apathetic Americans (which is most) literally do not care about any of the Elon stuff. They just see an EV car.

    Now, the only market for Cybertrucks are the douchiest rich tools. There’s other cooler EV trucks if they didn’t want to buy a drivable billboard.

    …Actually, the only people who SHOULD want it are people with a business because it actually works pretty well as a drivable billboard.
