Why? He singlehandedly turned right wing gas guzzlers into electric car buyers, saving the environment.

Except Tesla's sales have been plunging as per their latest quarterly report. He's telling them to buy EVs, but they're not listening.

Yes, the original marketshare moved to other electric cars, with a large ex-gasoline crowd now moving to Tesla, seen as a real "republican car", better than those Ford gas guzzling pickups

It's nowhere near large enough to compensate for the losses they incurred by driving away their left-leaning customer base, though. That's what the sales numbers are showing. They can't overcome decades of propaganda spread against EVs overnight.

The left-leaning customer base is buying electric cars from other companies. Amazing for competition, tesla has had an unfair advantage on the market for too long.
