269 - Tesla Under Attack , that is right, the people have waged war on Tesla but is that a smart move? Is it basic protesting or domestic terrorism when people try to set Tesla dealerships and charge stations on fire? The Tesla's camera's are catching unhinged people doing damage and most are arrested days, sometimes hours later. Was it worth it? Is our economy on the brink of failure due to all the tariffs? Would you rather buy a used Honda Civic FL5 Type R or an Acura Integra Type S?
