Elon's American Party Pooper? Tesla's Topsy-Turvy Turns Political!

A Right Royal Mess!

Right then! It seems Mr. Musk the clever chap who makes those electric cars that go *vroom* (much faster than my Mini mind you!) is causing a bit of a kerfuffle. Someone called Dan Ives a clever clogs who watches Tesla suggested Mr. Musk should well be a bit less… *involved* in politics. "Teddy!" What a pickle!

Shut Up! The Ultimate Insult?

And what did Mr. Musk say? 'Shut up Dan!' Can you believe it? Imagine if I told Mrs. Wicket to shut up! The cheek of it! It is just like the time I tried to conduct an orchestra. Total chaos! I ended up with my head stuck in a tuba. But oh the look on their faces! The suggestion for him to get 25% voting control would be a dream come true!

Wiped Out! Like My Christmas Turkey!

Apparently Tesla's shares went down. Down down down! Almost like when I accidentally reversed my Mini into a post box. Bang! £68 billion market cap vanished and I made the postal worker cross. Investors are growing tired of the distraction at a point when the business needs Musk's attention the most and only see downside from his dip back into politics. Uh oh!

Musk's Political Party... Oh Dear!

Now he's starting his own political party the 'America Party.' Sounds… interesting. I once tried to start my own party. We ate beans played with Teddy and watched the telly! Sadly no one came. Just me Teddy and a lot of beans.

The Board's in a Bind!

Even other clever chaps are worried! They think the Tesla board should do something. Create “guardrails” on political endeavors? What are guardrails? Do they stop the Mini from falling off a cliff? I need some of those! Just like when I am driving my green machine from my armchair.

Time for a Cup of Tea?

So what’s next? I don't know! Maybe Mr. Musk will listen. Maybe he won't. Either way it seems like things are a bit… *complicated*. I think I'll just stick to my tea Teddy and trying to avoid Mrs. Wicket. Cheerio!
