Tesla shares plummet as deliveries dip and Musk clashes with Trump over spending bill madness. Are subsidies the real Chains of Olympus?

Deliveries...DECREASED!

Hmph. Tesla's shares have taken a plunge like I did from that cliff in Greece! Seems their deliveries are down – a 13% drop. Analysts whisper of 387,000 vehicles a far cry from the 444,000 they pushed out last year. And some traders predict an even grimmer number: 364,000. Boy! The numbers...they haunt me...

Musk vs. Trump: A Clash of the Titans...Again?

It seems Elon Musk that mortal fool has reignited a feud with Donald Trump over some 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act'. Honestly these mortals and their laws...always seeking to complicate matters. Musk babbles about deficits and debt while Trump in his infinite wisdom claims Musk is just upset about losing his 'EV mandate'. This squabble is more tiresome than dragging the Titan Cronos through Tartarus.

The Bill: A Curse Upon the Land?

This 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act'...bah! It appears to favor the wealthy while slashing support for the needy. Medicaid food assistance...all deemed expendable. And the taxes cut add TRILLIONS to the national debt. Mortals...always so shortsighted. Reminds me of the gods on Olympus. Always fighting over trivialities while the world crumbles around them. Especially with Baldur being a pain in the ass for years!

Renewable Regret and EV Extinction?

Furthermore this bill threatens cuts to renewable energy development and EV tax credits. Consequences? A potential 100,000 fewer EV sales per year! A blow to Tesla's mortal ambitions. It could also crush Tesla's 'Energy division' which has solar and battery energy storage systems. The fool Tesla will feel my WRATH if he comes begging for my help! He best not be interrupting my fishing!

Subsidies: The Chains That Bind?

Trump mocks Musk suggesting he's losing his grip on subsidies. Apparently Tesla and SpaceX have raked in BILLIONS from government contracts and 'automotive regulatory credits'. Since 2015 Tesla has made $11.8 billion selling automotive regulatory credits with environmental credits. Like the strength I siphoned from my enemies these incentives have bolstered Tesla's bottom line accounting for 60% of their net income last quarter. Are these subsidies the new 'Chains of Olympus' binding these mortals to the whims of fate?

Boy! Is There Going to be a LOT of Chaos

The mortal feud between Musk and Trump continues to escalate and the consequences could be far reaching. Reduced deliveries stock prices plummeting political backlash and the potential demise of renewable energy subsidies...it's a perfect storm and I Kratos will watch it unfold with grim amusement. After all I am not a boy to get involved in politics but this surely is an interesting story!
