In recent weeks, there have been reports of vandalism and attacks on Tesla vehicles and dealerships across the country.
These threats appear to connect to Musk’s high-profile role in the business and political world.
Musk has participated in various initiatives aimed at reducing government spending and improving efficiency.
Some believe that these actions have drawn negative attention and threats from certain groups.
Musk himself has spoken about the dangers he faces due to his efforts to combat fraud and waste in government.
“It turns out when you take away people’s, you know, the money that they’re receiving fraudulently, they get very upset,” he said.
“And they basically want kill me because I’m stopping their fraud and they want to hurt Tesla because we’re stopping the terrible waste and corruption in the government.
And, well, I guess they’re bad people. Bad people do bad things.”
He continued: “I think there are larger forces at work as well,’ Musk said. ‘I mean, who’s funding and who’s coordinating it? Because this is crazy. I’ve never seen anything like this.
“Tesla is a peaceful company, we’ve never done anything harmful. I’ve never done anything harmful, I’ve only done productive things, so I think we just have a deranged… I think there’s some kind of mental illness going on here,” he added.
Numerous vandalism against Elon Musk and Tesla
Large protests have occurred at Tesla dealerships nationwide, with some incidents becoming violent.
In Las Vegas, an arsonist used Molotov cocktails to set five Teslas on fire and fired shots into the burning cars.
Recently, around 250 activists protested outside a Tesla showroom in New York City, carrying signs that read “Block Fascism Now” and “Musk Must Go,” claiming that “Elon Musk is not elected!”
President Trump condemned the escalating attacks as domestic terrorism, highlighting rising anger toward Musk.
“They’re harming a great American company,’ Trump said at the White House, referring to the demonstrators.
“Let me tell you, you do it to Tesla, and you do it to any company, we’re going to catch you, and… you’re going to go through hell.”
