KEY POINTS

Elon Musk said he would form a new political party called the “America Party.”

Tesla shares fell Monday after Musk’s announcement.

Tesla shareholders have wanted Musk to stay away from politics, especially after his stint at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency, which many have said damaged the automaker’s brand.

They should be seriously considering firing this fuck, by now. Everything he's done for the last couple of years has cost his investors money.

I just want him to shut up and go away. Being fired would just give him more attention, and something else to whine about.

It would also greatly diminish his financial holdings...which would knee-cap his ability to actively fuck with society.
