Why the tesla board hasn’t sent him packing yet is beyond me. There must be some golden parachute clause that would be very expensive, but he’s doing massive harm to their brand that it must be worth it to cut him loose at this point.

He's stacked the board with his friends and family. They're not going to raise the chance of it themselves.

Our only chance is/was actions by activist investors. I suppose I would have been considered one of those until yesterday when I sold.
