    If the Tesla board ousts Musk, I still wouldn’t give them a single red cent. The fact remains that they have enabled Musk all this time.

      But does the board have the votes to ditch Musk? I thought Musk lackeys were the majority of the board, and Musk, being largest shareholder, could probably block the deal anyway.

    It’s safe to assume the leaks are intentional. Whether he is replaced or not is surely something he’s actively choosing, and even if he’s replaced it doesn’t mean he loses power.

    By “leaking” this info that they’re shopping for a new CEO, and even Elon’s denial, they’re just gaming the stock. Probably to give the wealthier holders a chance to recoup some of their losses.

    The rich own the media. The media affects the markets. They’re playing with us like checkers pieces…

    All of his friends: Yeah don’t invite him to the party.

    Musk: There was no party. I am well liked.

      On the other hand, IIRC the board are all friends/family of his. That’s why he got that ridiculous pay package he got sued over in Delaware court.

    Aww, did Elmo not get the memo about how Tesla are planning to DOGE his sorry ass? Did he only discover it via the media? Now he knows how all those federal employees feel! Not that he’s capable of empathy or life lessons.

      Keep in mind the Tesla board is filled with sycophants and close friends/family type of people. If they’re looking and he didn’t know, that’s a pretty deep betrayal from his perspective.

        To quote a genius billionaire regarding a time of immense hardship due to receiving abrupt bad news,

        “CHAINSAW! YaAaAgHhH!”

        I’m sure that somebody’s heart goes out to him. He seems to have quite a bit of the Nat-C party standing behind him.
