Musk 'leaves' DOGE? Tesla's political crisis is brewing!
Elon Musk recently announced that he would step down from the U.S. government's 'Department of Government Efficiency' (DOGE), but this is not a simple 'exit'; it is an urgent retreat deeply entrenched in a political maelstrom. Let's dig deeper into the truth behind it:
DOGE: From 'Efficiency' to 'Controversy'
Musk's original intention with DOGE was to improve government efficiency, but the actual implementation has sparked huge controversy. 21 technology experts collectively resigned, accusing DOGE of 'dismantling critical public services,' jeopardizing the data and welfare of millions of Americans. Bill Gates also publicly criticized Musk for cutting the budget for global aid projects, believing this will lead to disease resurgence and increased global mortality rates.
Tesla: Stock plummets, investors withdraw
Tesla's stock price has fallen more than 27% since early 2025. A pension fund in Pennsylvania became the first institution to stop purchasing Tesla shares, citing dissatisfaction with Musk's political stance and the company's declining performance. Additionally, Tesla's sales in the UK have significantly dropped, being surpassed by Chinese brands such as Jaecoo and Omoda.
Global Protests: From 'Tesla Boycott' to 'Everyone Hates Musk'
Musk's political actions have triggered protests worldwide. Demonstrators held rallies outside Tesla stores, calling on the public to sell their Tesla cars and stocks. In London, protesters even destroyed a Tesla Model S to express their dissatisfaction with Musk and other billionaires.
Musk's Response: Exit from Politics?
Faced with pressure from multiple sides, Musk announced he would reduce his political involvement and focus on Tesla's operations. However, analysts believe that merely stepping down from DOGE is not enough to regain public trust and market share. Tesla needs more in-depth reforms and transparency to rebuild its brand image.
Musk's political adventure has not only impacted his personal reputation but has also caused substantial damage to Tesla. Leaving DOGE may be a start, but to truly restore public trust and market position, Tesla needs to make more substantial changes.
