OK, we get that you hate Trump and have cherry-picked the most awkward of his comments, which are pretty much a stream of consciousness kind of thing and easy to criticize, but such "reporting" is simply dishonest and disingenuous. E.g., "...the president has made it abundantly clear he doesn’t believe in climate change...." Everyone "believes" in climate change--it's been happening for billions of years, which every educated person knows, including Trump. What many of us "deniers" don't believe in is anthropogenic global warming which has cleverly been changed to "climate change" after the true believers were caught fudging data, selective sourcing, and outright lying. But no one is fooled--'climate change' really means 'global warming,' but leaves the back door open...just in case!

But there's a lot of money to be made from global warming scare porn and the transfer of wealth to politically-connected favored industries. I wonder how many of your readers know that reporting in the popular press of scientific "consensus" regarding climate change has alternated several times over the last century from another ice age to catastrophic heat death. There are rumblings beneath the surface reporting already of another swing coming (with the predictable call to spend trillions to avoid the end of all life on earth). Will we then be scolded by ignorant sixteen-year-olds and forced by our betters to burn coal to stave off being buried in miles of ice?

Trump is no idiot, as the MSM tries to portray him at every opportunity. He has been and is a very successful businessman with tons of common sense and financial acuity. He thoroughly understands the corrupt political/legal system and has learned to play it and its Swamp Creatures like a Stradivarius. His companies employ thousands who put food on the table for their families. Those employees include women and minorities of every race and religion, not that we would ever learn that from the MSM and non-productive Trump-haters.

Donald Trump is a media-savvy political outsider who has created wealth without the help of, and with much opposition from, politically connected insiders (and outlaws), unlike the legions of Wall Street crooks and charlatans and the armies of bureaucratic parasites who create nothing, distort markets, destroy wealth, and simply feed on the middle class. His intellect soars miles above that of the morons in Congress who declared CO2 (a gas absolutely vital to life on earth) to be a pollutant! He donates his official salary to charity and has subjected himself to the incredible abuse he gets simply because he loves America and its people and just wants to make it great again.

And FYI, I love EVs, drive a Tesla MX, have another MX on order, have a Pacifica Hybrid which my wife drives, and I will never own another ICE vehicle. I have solar on my roof, am an enthusiastic proponent of environment-friendly tech, love clean air and water, and firmly believe the future is electric, so spare me the ignorant, deceptive rants on what an idiot Trump is. He's not, and I'm not, so I'm not buying it. Let's just get back to loving EVs...and each other.

Clearly you have chosen to remain ignorant in relation to Trump. Far from being a self made man he inherited a nest egg from his old man, proceeded to squander it through bad investments and general stupidity, declared bankruptcy multiple times, left his creditors high and dry and got bailed out by Deutsch bank through a loan financed by Vladimir Putin. All part of the public record. If you put in half as much research into Trumps financial dealings as you did to Tesla you might have a little more credibility.

Perfect! Continue that trend of disrespect towards your president .. way to keep the lines clearly divided son! What page of the left-tard rulebook is this from?
Our esteemed 45th president, perhaps the best president of all time, even before there were presidents, is here on audio, taking down tesla with his buddies, and then a few days later congratulating Elon... May be the people who make natural gas compressors use electricity to compress the gas...

Listen to audio at the 56th minute
 
Perhaps your talking to the wrong conservatives ... or is this the typical leftist ignorant presumption that conservatives blindly follow their representatives and Hollywood twitter accounts like you guys?

I am basing it on the public positions the vast majority of republican candidates have taken, laws that have been passed (and bills blocked) by republican congress, and executive orders handed down by republican presidents. And this opinion is certainly backed up by the majority of my conversations with conservative friends, neighbors and family about environmental issues (for the most part, they believe the climate concerns are overblown and baseless). What is amazing to me is how republicans approached this issue in the early to mid 2000's - there was much more agreement from both sides about the facts of climate change, and largely just disagreement in how to approach it. That is just not the case now (you can't even mention climate change in deep red states without being laughed at). The evidence has only gotten stronger and scientific community even more unified since then so honestly, so if it is not blind following of representatives or Fox opinion hosts, then I am at a loss why that is so given the solid information on climate that is readily available.
 
Trump sounds like such an idiot, so even his so-called praise for Elon Musk is questionable. And the president has taken so many anti-climate actions, you have to wonder what the hell he is talking about. In a year, when a new president is inaugurated, he or she will have to start repairing all the damage he is trying to do to the environment.


Oh geez. If you thought trump was going to lose in 2016 and lost your mind, you might go absolutely insane in 2020. Sorry bro, but there isn't a single democrat who is going to take on Trump. You might want to prepare yourself now. If democrats want to win they need to stop acting like communists and find someone more moderate. 2020 wont even be close.

Why ?

You can’t handle the truth? You want to hide the truth from others to see? You just can’t stand the outpouring of support of the best President Our Country has seen in decades?
So typical.
Oh wait! That was Hillary’s tactic too. Just Delete and Bleach-bit the truth.
This thread doesn’t belong here. It’s about Tesla not the president

You’re totally right Watson. I just want to keep on topic. Trumps doing a good job in my opinion. Not typical at least for me. I’m all in for Tesla. Hope you are too. Good man buddy. I can handle the truth. It’s obvious.
Have a great day. BTW Watson are you in line for HW 3 retrofit?
 
The most interesting thing he said was Tesla building a factory in the US. Is there anything to made from that? Was that a stupid inane ramble? or did he tip something?

Thanks for bringing us back to the matter at hand. Tesla is looking to continue to expand and it looks like it's going to be Texas. No, Trump isn't always the most eloquent, but couldn't that be the very reason he is endeared by so many people?
 
Crazy amount of cognitive dissonance in this thread. Good Lord.

I honestly can't fathom how people can still support a demented, racist, xenophobic, adulterer with absolutely no concept of how to close an umbrella, much less run a country...but here we are.

It sounds like he used the federal tax rebate as leverage to convince Elon Musk to build another factory in the US... Then again the context of the conversation seemed to be about protecting intellectual property, so maybe there’s something else I’m missing?
