...and step down as CEO of Tesla.
Put a left-leaning no-nonsense CEO at the helm who can take a longer view and remain focused on it. Taking the company private now that the stock price is down would help with that.
There's something seriously wrong when Democrats are cheering at the misfortunes of the world's largest electric vehicle company which just happens to be an American company with over 100,000 employees. Musk is proof that liberals can sometimes be mesmerized by shiny objects as well.
He can run Twitter into the ground for all I care. Tesla is strategically important to the green energy movement and can be saved.

(8,291 posts)On bringing possibly millions down with them. The question is: is it better to risk their malevolent and catastrophic incompetence for the sake of their industries and the livelihoods they effect, or accept the chaos, tumult and destruction that comes with their ultimate self destruction?
At the end of the day they are responsible for all of it and we should be happy if they finally see their end.

(44,119 posts)One was that no CEO who could actually turn twitter around would be willing to take the job. Another was fairly straight talk to a user about how close to bankruptcy twitter is.
I think hes depressed as hell, hope his family can get him some help. In a place very very far from twitter.

Its a premium brand and while their cars can do some amazing things they dont hold up long term and kill people all the time.

(15,265 posts)The board of Tesla should oust him as CEO and appoint someone stable enough to run the company.

(68,556 posts)others are making better electric cars. We do not need to enrich a f'ing racist thug like Musk...Tesla had an opportunity unlike any other but Musk being Musk blew it...it is too late for Tesla now. And I say good riddance. We don't need any manufacturer who calls various manufacturing lines the 'plantation' or the 'slave ship. Fuck Musk and Tesla.
Well said. Well said.

(24,283 posts)maybe GM can take over the plant in Fremont. Things will have come full circle then, since that building was originally a GM assembly plant. And the employees can stay on and join the UAW.
