Previous Tesla electric car buyers who are embarrassed and even humiliated by Elon Musk’s political move to supporting Donald Trump and MAGA, both financially and verbally, have been selling their Teslas. Some have also been selling because of constant Tesla vehicle build quality issues. JJ investigates this phenomenon of anti-Elon Telsa-selling.

Could Tesla’s current profits get cut in half or more, and Tesla stock (TSLA) with it, with the new EV-related policies of the incoming Trump administration. At present, over 40% of Tesla's profit comes from selling regulatory credits, which could go away. The $7,500 EV tax credit is also likely to be removed.

I react to part of a recent In Good Company podcast interview with legendary super investor Stan Druckenmiller, in which he discusses his thoughts on the increasingly richly valued U.S. tech sector, and A.I. stocks such and Nvidia. Druckenmiller discusses how he is currently positioned in the A.I. sector, and what signs he’s looking for going forward.

I react to some of the many Tesla stock promoters or pumpers, after the recent Tesla stock price jump following the US election, in which Elon helped Trump become the US President. Will Elon be able to put his “thumb on the scale” to help Tesla, SpaceX and his other companies during the next four years? The Tesla stock pumpers think so, and are pretty optimistic about the near and long term future for Tesla and Tesla stock.

Elon Musk’s Tesla continues to be accused of possible deceptive marketing of its Supervised Full Self-Driving system by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). I investigate the claims, and the implications given the Trump administration will soon take power, and Elon Musk is now working closely the President Trump, including potentially being in a position to regulate Tesla’s regulators.
