No one expected Elon Musk to cave like this.
He’s been fighting against the left-wing mob for free speech.
But then he made a dirty deal with Joe Biden that changed everything.
Elon Musk has been moving to the right on a number of political issues over the last few years.
He purchased Twitter with the goal of making it a haven for free speech and has spoken out in favor of issues like gun rights.
But Musk still has a number of businesses to run and he’s been more than willing to play ball with the Biden administration behind the scenes.
These moves conflict with his public persona, which has been openly hostile towards Biden and his administration.
According to Politico:
“Elon Musk is a constant critic of President Joe Biden — but his car company is the biggest winner from Biden’s effort to expand the nation’s supply of electric vehicle chargers.”
“Tesla is installing more charging plazas than any other company funded by Biden’s 2021 bipartisan infrastructure law, according to an exclusive analysis of public records for POLITICO’s E&E News by the data consulting firm EVAdoption. Tesla has won almost 13 percent of all EV charging awards from the law, earning it a total of more than $17 million in infrastructure grants.”
“This comes on the heels of other wins for Tesla, which makes more electric vehicles and operates more charging stations than anyone in the United States, and is cementing its charging technology as the nation’s de facto standard. And it comes despite repeated friction between Musk and Biden: The Tesla CEO has mocked the president as ‘a damp sock puppet in human form’ who ‘is treating the American public like fools,’ while the White House has condemned Musk for actions such as endorsing an antisemitic post on his social media network X.”
Musk probably really does have issues with Biden’s leadership, but when it comes to the business decisions he’s made, he’s put his personal views aside for the benefit of his companies.
Elon Musk has done a lot of good for the conservative movement by making Twitter a free-speech platform.
But he’s also playing ball with Joe Biden – and conservatives will be very surprised to know about all the deals he’s made.
