They already put a 100% tarrif on the most affordable EV (byd seagull)
Exactly. He already has his hand up the government's ass and had been sucking off billions of dollars in subsidies and other benefits. This will only get worse, but apparently boosting musk is bipartisan, the two parties just differ in how much they want to give to him.
Spoiler: They will waste their time.
My guess the tariffs will be on "any non-tesla car produced outside the US".
That means, for example, Volkswagen gets the tariff.
"Use his influence" = get what he paid tens of millions in bribes for
You misspelled 44 billion dollar.
Money is power/influence, that has always been the case. Not sure why you felt the need to put that in quotes as if it wasn't universally applicable.
I was quoting the article.
It doesn't matter that he has several hundred billion more votes than anyone. Money is speech bro. Legalized bribery is democracy. Well it was. Now fascism and dictatorship are democracy. That's called Freedom™️!
Why does the first line of the article say the location is New Delhi?
The editor, Saibal Dasgupta, seems to be a journalist located in India.
Voice of America's headquarter is in Washington though, so good question.
To indicate the — clearing throat — seriosity of this paper.
Of course, it could all be another elaborate pump-and-dump scheme by Elon. It wouldn't put it past him.
Next pump and dump: the American economy.
