That picture doesn’t look like the picture of a guy who will finally deliver self driving cars after promising they were less than one year away for the last 20 years.
The sad thing is if he steps away from politics, I think the outrage will subside in a couple of months. The public doesn’t have that strong a memory in the best of times, with the pace of news nowadays, very few people will remember how much of problem he was being.
So yes, just locking him out of the spotlight would be enough. His leadership is not great, but distracting him could really save Tesla’s image.
I am hopeful that the pain continues for him. Tesla was the only option for a few years for an EV with >100mile range and a nation wide system for charging. Those things are not true anymore. I mean I got chargers near my visitor center tourist area with a population of ~40k ffs. He had a monopoly and a comically inflated stock valuation. The stock is currently seeing a proper rebalance now that there is competition. Dude had a defacto monopoly, and pissed it away to do two Nazi salutes. He likely will never be actually broke, and Tesla isn’t going away completely anytime soon. But any economic pain he endures is a slight glimmer of hope.
I LOVE that he thinks his leaving government to refocus on Tesla will solve the sales issue Tesla has been experiencing.
He just does not get it.

The drugs ate his already small brain
