Notably, Elon Musk has suddenly faded from the spotlight now. According to a Politico report, Musk hasn’t featured in a single Truth Social post by Trump since 31 March. Before that, the president couldn’t stop praising him, mentioning Musk four times a week and even 11 times in one week back in February.
Not to forget, Elon Musk spent around $270 million for Trump's 2024 US presidential campaign. Also, Musk's super political action committee America PAC was also a top outside spender in this year's election for a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court.
The advisor for the Department of Governmental Efficiency (DOGE) also faced criticism regarding cuts made to several government departments which also led to several Tesla vehicles and showrooms being vandalised across the US.
Rallies were carried out near Tesla dealerships in Texas, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, Minnesota, and many more states.
'Burn a Tesla, Save Democracy', ‘De-Musk America’ and 'Don't Buy Nazi Cars', people were seen raising such slogans.
