Summary

Donald Trump and Republican lawmakers are pushing to classify vandalism against Tesla as domestic terrorism.

Trump declared that those damaging Tesla dealerships would face terrorism charges, calling the company “a great American company.”

Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene and others urged the FBI and Attorney General to investigate alleged Democrat-linked NGOs behind Tesla attacks, though no evidence was provided.

Greene may have violated House ethics rules by advocating for Tesla while owning its stock.

    No one ever said hating Elon Musk was a crime but destroying private property is. Burning down charging stations, dealerships, and attacking strangers for the type of car they drive are absolutely acts of terrorism. At the end of the day independents decide elections. Do you think this behavior makes democrats more appealing? Is this going to swing voters in your direction? You guys have really lost your way and i feel sorry for you.

      Man half the country is gonna be classified “terrorist” before we have another major vote again. You think people burning Teslas give a fuck about the democratic party that failed this country in a massive massive way for the last several decades.

      No one burning Teslas gives a flying fuck about the Democrats. I really want to live in your world were the Democrats are “radical leftist” and it wasn’t just a few anarchist kids with some balls. I wish the Democrats had some teeth but they’re a sad pathetic planned opposition party.

      You vote Fascism INTO power. It doesn’t let you just vote it out. Anyone burning a Tesla knows that.

        Yes the people burning Teslas are obviously democrats. I’m much more interested in this fascism you speak of. Can you tell me any specific examples or experiences of fascism that you have endured? (There will be another election in 2026 btw.)
