Tesla's CEO Elon Musk’s Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Week
The world’s richest man Elon Musk appeared to be feeling himself on Sunday. Over the weekend he added a red tinge and laser eyes to his profile picture on X, which is considered a sign of being bullshit on crypto. Conservatives were excited about reporting saying he planned to spend $45 million a month supporting Donald Trump. Things took a turn for the Tesla CEO on Monday when he clarified that he wasn’t going to spend anything like that and said his Optimus robots won’t be available until 2026. On Tuesday, Tesla’s quarterly report painted a dire picture for the company.
By Wednesday morning, the laser eyes and rid tinge were gone from his Avatar and he was floating the idea of Tesla investing $5 billion into his artificial intelligence startup.
Musk gave his full-throated endorsement of Trump following a failed assassination attempt on the candidate on July 13. Three days later, the Wall Street Journal reported that Musk was part of a new Pro-Trump Super PAC and he planned to donate $45 million to the cause of getting Trump re-elected
