Donald Trump said he has "no choice" but to support electric vehicles thanks to Elon Musk's endorsement, but he prefers gas powered options.

      I’m not looking forward to seeing Cybertrucks with Trump and MAGA flags.

        Yes. I think I searched Elon Musk Picture Deleted Forever or something. I’m sure reverse image search would also work

    Translation: he’ll be very much against electric vehicles the next time he and Musk have a falling-out.

    I don’t know how his cult takes him seriously.

    He says one thing to one group, another thing to another group, and they just go, “Yeah Trump!”

    Weird.

      Of all the things to quit over, this is a pretty solid one. Now, whether or not that’s the same guy we see today…

      Elon Musk is stepping away from his roles on two of Donald Trump’s advisory councils following the president’s decision to pull the United States out of the Paris climate agreement.

      Think he means money. He was given lots of money.

      He works the same way as the SCOTUS
