Just wait until the long hot summer of discontent starts, I predict it will be worse than anything this shithole country has experienced in modern times.

Vandalizing the gas stations. The gas shortage ended days later.

With a skew towards (D).

It's like burning down a grocery store in an area to protest the discrimination that leads to food deserts.

Oh--and they're not *that* expensive for Tesla to replace.

Tesla charging stations are used by all makes of car now and people driving EVs rely on these. This does not hurt Elmo one bit.

Over the rule of "Hey, this is a good idea, so I'm a democracy of one."

"Army of one" was a neat Army slogan, but "democracy of one" ... Not so much.

Thanks to evil psychos like Musk who openly flaunt every single law they encounter.

I'm not pro-vandalism but I'm sure not worried about his stinking charging stations any more than he's worried about people's Social Security.

I saw the video on Reddit.

Not just tires--entire wheels. It looked like it may have been a dealership (tons of those stupid trucks). It's tough because lots of good people bought them for environmental reasons and now they've become a symbol of all the horrors Edolf is engaged in.
