I know Billionaires going to billionaire and all, but with Elon Musk so obviously having a strong position in Trump's cabinet, wouldn't it make sense to advocate against that administration? Elon is going to crush every private space and EV manufacturer in favor of his own companies. Elon is doing his best 'toddler in a bounce house' impression at the rallies. No way Bezos is going to compete or overcome Elon's influence, especially since I doubt Trump will give a single fuck what his cabinet does.
Again, avoiding taxes is all they care about, but damn. Harris might raise his taxes a fraction of a sliver, but at least Blue Origin would get a fair shake at contracts.
Trump has said he's going to put enemies of America in prison and intimated that this includes anyone that worked with, for, or in support of Harris. I suspect Bezos believes him.
That would only make me work harder for Harris, but then I'm not a self-obsessed billionaire.
Yeah right. Almost every single car manufacturer makes EVs now and starting in less than a decade (2040 at the latest), new fossil cars are going to be banned in several countries.
He might have been able to do it when it was basically just Teslas and Nissans Leaf, but even as a high ranking member of a fascist American government, he's not going to be able to just abolish the auto industry 😄
