Biden comments on Elon Musk
News summary

Elon Musk's relationship with President Biden has soured since the latter praised General Motors CEO Mary Barra for 'electrifying the entire automobile industry,' despite Tesla's dominance in the electric vehicle (EV) market. The comments, made during a November 2021 event, sparked outrage among Tesla executives as they felt snubbed, with Tesla delivering over 115,000 EVs compared to GM's mere 26 at that time. Musk, who initially supported Biden in the 2020 election, has since shifted his allegiance towards Donald Trump, promising financial support for his campaign and criticizing Biden and Kamala Harris on social media. The tensions stem partly from Biden's close ties with the United Auto Workers (UAW) union, which has pressured the administration to distance itself from Tesla due to its non-union status. This feud has led Musk to adopt more right-leaning positions and rhetoric, focusing on issues like immigration and social policies. Ultimately, Musk feels sidelined in favor of traditional automotive giants amid Biden's push for unionized labor in the EV sector.
