Elon Musk said on an earnings call Tuesday that he plans to devote more of his attention to running his electric vehicle company Tesla, which reported a stark drop in sales and revenues for the first quarter of the year, amid pervasive concerns about the impacts of tariffs and Musk’s own role in reshaping the government.

    I heard the call, he said he will devote more time for tesla but still do the government stuff.

    Almost 90 minutes of stuttering and mumbling lies. It was painful.

    He needs to step away from everything until people forget about him. Him being involved in any company will not help that company.

    Leader of humanity, champion of the future, the herald of space, the greatest warrior in the resistance, the only billionaire who cares about us –

    Oh wait no, he lost a fraction of his enormous wealth, I guess he’s giving in to the forces of wokevil.

    Too late Elmo. Then again, maybe he can run Tesla into the ground too…

    The man is such a genius, he thought it wise to have Donald Trump advertise his goods (Tesla). What better way to alienate the half of the country that historically were more likely buy your cars.

      It’s not even about too late. He’s the REASON they’re tanking. From his PR disasters to him pushing ideas like the Cybertruck. More attention to Tesla just means more problems. But less problems in government, so I support him leaving.
