it was doomed the moment he bought twitter and immediately started working with putin against ukraine by turning of the satellite coverage in the area.

Reverse the damage with a nazi in charge?
Seeing how things went the past 10 years i think people will have forgotten about musk by August and then the tesla shares and sale will rise to unforseen heights.
I hope I'm wrong but I seriously doubt it.
The best thing he could do for Tesla would be resign from Tesla
Lol what's he going to do at Tesla? More false promises of self-driving by the end of the year? Robot butlers that are totally not just being controlled remotely by some guy in a VR suit?
He got it all the companies that can regulate him. He did the job that he intended to do.
Does he not realise that it's his association with tesla that's fucked it?
Returing will resolve nothing. Except his poor bwuised ego someone bring the poor dear his ~~handlers~~ sycophants
Tesla as a company is in a damned if they do, damned if they don't.
When you look at the business fundamentals versus the stock valuation, it's clear something doesn't add up, and at least formerly elons image was a big part of it.
Then he went full mask off and tanked his image.
So without the musk cult, is there enough to support their over inflated valuation? What does a post cult Tesla look like, when other companies have proven they can catch up or pass Tesla on various fronts people thought Tesla might be unassailably ahead. The various potential horizontal growth opportunities like solar and home batteries have fallen flat, their robot demonstration was significantly faked, and they are late to the self driving cab game, at best. A solid company, but not worth more than all their competition combined as their current valuation suggests.
So I think the hope is that he gets preoccupied with "making Tesla great again" and away from screwing with government. Then hope that people kind of forget about his political machinations and things sort of go back to the way they were for the hopefully forgetful public.
They phrase it like he's going back to his desk and crunch some numbers and work really hard to get tesla out of this predicament.
He will go back to his desk and keep on spending all of his time shitposting on his own shitty social media platform.
Don't forget the 80 hours a week of PoE2 grinding!
Everything he touches will turn to Nazi shit after what he’s done.
Bro sounds like the biggest JD from Grandma’s boy. Right down to wearing stupid leather outfits. He’s a cucked loser with no actual friends. No one that reaches out just to see how he’s doing. And is asking for nothing in return. He doesn’t have those relations.
People won't forgive the damage he's done to the country that welcomed him.
People won't forget the Nazi salutes.
That's what he's bringing back to Tesla. Unless Tesla severs all ties with this toxic liability, they're doomed.
I love the assumption that somehow the problem was that he wasn't spending enough time at Tesla, as if the Cybertruck wasn't 100% his baby through and through. Clearly, with more genius ideas like that the company would be doing so much better.
I think the assumption is stated to placate his ego, to attract him away from continuing to tank his image. It's not that they want him with Tesla so much as they want him away from government.
Full self driving in the next 5 years! [Elon Musk, 2016 and every year since]
I believe he only owns 10%ish of the company now. And most of his investments are in spacex. So I'm honestly not sure what hes going to do.
Is he going back to his bunker to off himself like his idol, Hitler.
Here's hoping!
God would smile
I'm sick of Elon Musk's fucking face.
It's not just Twitter and Tesla anymore. Anything he touches will make most people revolt and move away Although some people can't be saved and will follow him. But basically I think he's done.
There was inverse Cramer, now it's inverse Musk.
He was always a net negative to operations, but he's substantially declined in his drug abuse and mental health since his foray into politics. He's going to wreck anything he touches with his hubris.
Of course it could take a long time for his faithful to come to terms with that.
seems like he upped his drug use when the trump election happened.
Maybe they hope they can tuck him away and go back to "managing" him. Maybe they can patch his image a bit if they can keep him away from anything important enough to piss people off.
I like what Walz tweeted about this, something like he's gonna pause destroying your retirement so he can go save his.
I will never buy a tesler. there are way better EVs on the market already.
plenty of EVs that have a good steering wheel that doesn’t fly off your hand while you’re driving.
Not to mention, circular in shape, and not a copy of a fucking airplane yoke.
One of the best parts of driving IMO is when you're relying on the car to straighten itself out after a turn and release the wheel slightly to feel it rotate in your hand. I guess i shouldn't be surprised that his cars are so poorly designed that they even removed that sensation.
You're right, it's such a satisfying motion. So glad I didn't fall for the Tesla bs.

He has been DOGED.
Even if the boarding directors fired Musk and did everything they could to disentangle his diseased legacy from the company, Teslas would still be overpriced shitboxes with serious quality control issues.
He should go to Mars
Guillotines are out, shoot them to Mars in the near future. One way ticket. The technicalities of return can be figured out later. I hear big brain Elon can do this.
He can bring Donald and several other Congress and his Admins with him too. We can create a GoFundMe.
Yes
god I hope so
Yes.
