Elon Musk criticized President Joe Biden for excluding Tesla from the White House EV summit in 2021, expressing frustration with Biden’s treatment of his company.
Musk accused Biden of being influenced by unions and publicly expressed his disappointment, citing the incident as a reason for not supporting Biden’s reelection.
This exclusion has been a recurring point of contention for Musk, leading to a strained relationship between the two. (Trending: Joe Biden Emailed Hunter’s Business Associates 54 Times)
“Let’s not forget the White House giving Tesla the cold shoulder, excluding us from the EV summit and crediting GM with ‘leading the electric car revolution’ in the same quarter that they delivered 26 electric cars (not a typo) and Tesla delivered 300 thousand,” Musk wrote.
“Most of the Democratic Party is controlled by the unions — they carry far more weight than the environmentalists — and Biden particularly so (he gladly admits it).”
“In Biden’s speech, posted on WhiteHouse.gov, he literally says ‘the UAW elected me,'” Musk said.
“The White House cold shoulder started well before I ‘said controversial things.'”
“They held an electric vehicle summit at the White House and specifically refused to let Tesla attend. Biden went on to add insult to injury and publicly said GM was leading the electric car revolution,” Musk said.
Musk also indicated a shift in his political alliances, expressing support for GOP presidential candidate Ron DeSantis.
“My preference for the 2024 presidency is someone sensible and centrist. I had hoped that would be the case for the Biden administration, but have been disappointed so far,” Musk said.
