Tesla is facing issues with the bare metal construction of the Cybertruck, which Elon Musk warned was as tricky to do as making Lego bricks

My tinfoil hat theory on why Elon is acting all right wing all of the sudden is to get those idiots to buy electric bare metal Pontiac Aztecs with “unbreakable” windows instead of F-150’s

can he recoup $44 billion tho....? it's a bold move.meme

wouldn't it be nice to have some kind of logical explanation for his demented thrashings?

I don't think he actually cares about the money he blew on Twitter. Money is a construct and that is even more true for rich people. If he cared about the money, he wouldn't have tossed Twitter down the shitter.

I think he cares more about the impression he is making, whether it be good or bad. People are talking about Elon and that's all that matters.

He was ordered by the court to proceed with the Twitter deal, that he vocally tried to back out of.

That doesn't mean he cares about the money.

While I don't know the cost to develop the cyber truck assuming it was 0 dollars to make the cost of the Twitter deal from cyber truck alone, it would take 88 thousand of them at elon getting 100% of the money from the sales. ( how he expects to sell an electric truck for 50k is beyond me)
