Musk Issues Darkest Threat Yet Over Election Result Amid Senate Debate
Elon Musk threatened to 'destroy' Tesla if Republican lawmakers voted for the 'Big, Beautiful Bill', a bill that could provide tax credits for electric vehicle purchases and impact his company's business model. The comment came as Senate Democrats debated the bill on Monday.
Elon Musk made his starkest political threat since the election after declaring he was stepping away from the spotlight. Musk sent a message to President Joe Biden saying that if the Senate does not pass a bill in support of Ukraine, he will donate $100 million to an unspecified opponent's campaign. The tweet sparked widespread concern among Democrats who are concerned about the potential influence of Russian oligarchs on US politics. The exact details of Musk's proposed donation remain unclear.
