Mr. Elon Musk.
Yes!
Elon Musk, who runs the
largest U.S.
EV maker Tesla right now,
might be closer than anyone
in the world to President
Donald Trump.
We talk almost every day.
And President Trump has
already taken steps to roll
back the federal programs
that support Tesla's main
product. Some say that could
be disastrous for the
company.
There's no way you can spin
this positive.
It's a huge negative for
Tesla.
He funds the rest of his
empire through Tesla stock
sales or Tesla,
borrowing against Tesla
stock. Cut off your nose and
spite your face.
Doesn't make a lot of sense,
but it's all about power for
Elon.
On the other hand,
Tesla has been moving into
autonomous vehicles and
robotics,
new businesses that bullish
investors say could double
Tesla's market value.
You think another trillion
in market cap from here?
I mean, I think the golden
goose is autonomous.
CNBC dives into the Trump
administration's moves on
EVs and how they could help
or hurt America's largest EV
maker and President Trump's
right hand man.
What's this one? That's
unleashing American energy,
sir?
On January 20th,
the Trump administration
issued an executive order
that took aim at a variety
of "green" government
policies.
Many that have helped Tesla
and continue to help it are
on the chopping block.
The order states the
administration's aim to
eliminate subsidies for EVs,
prevent states from setting
their own EV targets,
and pause the disbursement
of funds for EV charging
stations, among other
things.
Trump's head of
transportation,
Sean Duffy, is also looking
to roll back federal rules
that limit vehicle
emissions.
There are, of course,
questions as to how much
Trump can do and how much
Republicans are going to
want to do. Some rules,
like the EV tax credits for
buyers, are in the Inflation
Reduction Act of 2022.
Repealing those would take
an act of Congress,
but there are other means at
the administration's
disposal. Say you are a
company that has an approved
loan from the Department of
Energy that hasn't been
funded yet.
