Minnesota’s far-left Governor Tim Walz is under fire this week after attacking Tesla and its CEO Elon Musk. The failed vice presidential candidate tried to mock the electric car company’s dropping stock price—but ended up looking like a total fool. Even his own party is cringing at his latest stunt.
Walz bragged about laughing at Tesla’s struggles during a public speech. He told crowds he checks his phone to watch the stock fall for a “boost.” He even joked about ripping Tesla logos off cars. Critics slammed him for cheering the losses of hardworking investors, including Minnesota’s own pension fund.
Elon Musk fired back, calling Walz a “jerk” and a “creep.” He pointed out how cruel it is to celebrate people losing money. Musk reminded everyone that Tesla employs thousands of Americans and creates products millions love. Conservatives praised Musk for standing up to Walz’s nasty comments.
Walz later claimed he was “just joking”—but no one bought it. His weak apology made things worse. He called Tesla fans “butthurt” while ignoring the real damage his words caused. Even liberal media called his behavior “embarrassing” and “idiotic.”
The best part? Tesla’s stock shot up days after Walz’s rant. Investors ignored his negativity and trusted Musk’s vision. The 20% jump wiped out Walz’s smirks. Now he looks like a clueless hypocrite instead of a serious leader.
Here’s the kicker: Minnesota’s pension fund owns over a million Tesla shares. Walz’s attacks hurt his own state’s retirees. Financial experts blasted him for not knowing basic facts. “What a bozo,” said Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary. “He’s sabotaging his people.”
Meanwhile, radical leftists are vandalizing Tesla cars and dealerships nationwide. The FBI warns these “domestic terrorists” are targeting Musk for working with President Trump. Walz stays silent on the violence while whining about stock prices.
While Walz plays childish games, Musk keeps innovating. Tesla’s new affordable models and Optimus robots prove real leadership. Musk fights waste in government while Walz wastes time on petty insults. Conservatives agree: Walz belongs in a classroom, not politics.
