The "left" Appears to Hate Elon Musk
President Biden wouldn't mention the name "Tesla" or "Elon Musk" in his EV Day speech at the White House, even though Elon Musk and Tesla have inarguably pioneered the EV revolution. Hmmm.
And when Musk's Space-X spacecraft put four Americans into outer space, putting Americans back into space travel, in American-built spacecraft, for the first time since the closing of the Shuttle program back in 2011, and considering this event helped to raise $200 million for St. Jude's Childrens Hospital, did Biden say, "Good job!"? No. He said nothing. Didn't acknowledge it at all. And this lack of an acknowledgement was conspicious by its absence to more than a few news pundits.
And then when "left" politicians start spewing false accusations about Musk, you gotta wonder, what is going on?
Bernie Sanders' quote below sounds like he's talking about Jeff Bezos, but he's not, he's talking about Elon Musk!
Sorry, but are Sanders and Warren totally clueless and just assume that all billionaires are greedy, or do they know that what they are saying misrepresents reality and is BS and they've got an agenda (as do most politicians). It's well known and a matter of public record that Musk has paid billions in personal taxes, and he's for billionaires paying their fair share of taxes. And he's never gone up in one of his rockets, and he doesn't ask the Federal government for subsidies, and feels that no subsidies should be given to big businesses, and that includes the fossil fuel industry. So when politicians misrepresent a viral infection and vaccine products, that's wrong, and so is misrepresenting someone who is actually doing good works. No wonder I'm so sick of politics and politicians.
And personally, I think Musk should sue Warren for defamation of character because he definitely does not "freeload off everyone else". So I've got wonder, what is her agenda? Are they just trying to cozy up to Biden? Or are they so out of touch.
