    That will surely lower the cost of eggs! I know people say it all the time, but like cruelty is the point. Why do this? There is no savings, no point, it’s just to be a prick.

      Everything he is doing is just to be a prick.

        Not true. He’s also stealing and grifting a lot of money. Like, this guy was in insane debt before he ran for office… Now I believe he’s probably a legit billionaire.

        He went to make sure fort Knox had gold the other day… Lol. We know what this guy is doing.

    Don’t worry, he’ll just give Musk another $50 million government contract to redo them. And by “redo”, I mean turn them back on.

    Is this going to piss off his boss; Lonely Kumslut? Or is he intending to replace them?

      These are almost all non-Tesla chargers with a plug which makes them more convenient with other brands.

      Edit: fixed who can use the chargers

        with a plug which can only be used by other brands.

        Let’s not spread misinformation. Teslas come with an adapter to use J1772 plugs for charging, they can use those stations just fine.

          Less convenient to use does not equal impossible to use.

      Yeah, that’s going to be my guess. Rip out the existing ones, then he sells a bunch of cybertrucks to the government and suddenly those chargers need to be installed, but this time as Tesla superchargers.

    This is really funny imo.

    We are past the time when green technology needs a boost.

    We are now at a time when green tech is the cheapest solution.

    So these are all theatre, cause green will be the obvious choice for those who think about the bottom line moving forward.

        That’s exactly right. These thing were already bought, paid for, installed, and being used. This is just a fuck-you to anyone who cares about the environment. Why? Because if you care about the environment you probably don’t support Trump.

    Bet Tesla will place superchargers right outside the government plots. So Musk can cash in on this.

    It just makes no sense economically either. He is screwing over Elon’s own company, just to force oil onto consumers. I get the feeling that this administration is straight up doing it for the evilz. Supporting only dictators, telling every lie possible, cutting government agencies that help, while creating new ones to steal your tax anyway.

    This will definitely lower the price of eggs.

    This feels more damn petty than Regan taking solar panels off the Whitehouse. Like these chargers were already installed, they weren’t costing a damn thing, and now they’re going to spend money to have perfectly good infrastructure sit unused. Fucking morons.

    Everyone is focusing on musk, not realizing he’s trumps patsy. He’s the goddamn fall guy. He said some true, but unkind, things about trump and trump doesn’t forget slights. If this charade starts to crumble, he’s going to point at musk and blame him for everything.

      That’s just untrue. They believe they’re each others’ fall guy. In reality Trump is owned by Russia (not exaggerating, look up “American Kompromat”), and Vance is owned by Peter Thiel. We can only hope that Trump’s pettiness and Musk’s ego can cause this whole house of cards to implode before they completely dismantle American institutions.

      I think they have other fall guys lined up. Trump seems barely coherent enough to run for office, musk is pulling trump’s strings

        They’re both more than dumb enough to believe that the other one is their patsy without realising they’re really both Putin’s puppets.

        It would be kind of tragicomic if they weren’t fucking up the world in the process.
