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.

Hahahaha - have you seen “the board”? It’s several bought-and-paid-for dipshits and members of his family. He’ll make a good decision before they oust him.

Not happening. Never (unless it’s part of a scam, then yeah sure why not. Gotta fleece the stooges).

Then it sounds like it would be a slam-dunk to prove in court, that the board is no longer honoring its fiduciary duties to its investors.

Which "rich" are you talking about? The one rich guy in charge...or the many rich people that are watching their investment bottom out, because of him?
