While Elon Musk and President Donald Trump continue to reshape Washington with their signature blend of efficiency, patriotism, and unapologetic leadership, the left is having a full-blown meltdown—this time outside Tesla dealerships across the globe. Their crime? Musk is helping drain the D.C. swamp with an industrial-strength pump.
On Saturday, leftist protesters launched coordinated demonstrations outside all 277 Tesla showrooms and service centers in the U.S., and even some in Europe, as part of a tantrum dubbed the “Tesla Takedown.” The aim? Try to hurt the world’s most successful carmaker for daring to partner with President Trump in the mission to restore sanity to the federal government.
Here’s the reality: These protests are less about Tesla and more about fear. Fear that Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is working. Fear that deep-state grifters are finally being shown the door. And fear that America First is back—with a vengeance.
In Texas, New York, California, and beyond, groups of protesters showed up with handmade signs like “Honk if you hate Elon” and “Fight the billionaire broligarchy” (whatever that means). In Dublin, California, a few dozen shouted tired chants while across the street, proud Trump supporters waved American flags. In Berkeley, drums pounded while the professionally offended carried signs comparing Musk to Nazis. Real classy.
These are the same folks who spent years mocking Musk for warning about woke extremism. Now that he’s rolling up his sleeves and helping President Trump clean out the bureaucratic rot that’s crippled America for decades, they’re panicking. And make no mistake—this is coordinated political theater, backed by Hollywood elites like John Cusack and radical Democrats like Rep. Jasmine Crockett and Rep. Pramila Jayapal.
Funny thing though: while they scream about “fascism,” Musk is busy cutting waste, restoring accountability, and securing sensitive data—exactly what the federal government was supposed to do all along.
DOGE, under Musk’s direction, has shuttered dozens of bloated, useless agencies that did nothing but burn taxpayer money. And for once, Silicon Valley innovation is being put to work in the interest of the American people, not globalist NGOs or alphabet-soup agencies with five layers of management and zero results.
Naturally, the activist left is losing it. In Germany, seven Teslas were reportedly torched. In Massachusetts, two protesters were reportedly grazed by a pickup truck mirror. While most of Saturday’s protests remained peaceful, there’s a clear undercurrent of rage from those who see their grip on power slipping. They’re watching Trump and Musk unplug the bureaucratic matrix—and they’re lashing out.
Attorney General Pam Bondi was crystal clear: acts of Tesla vandalism and vehicle arson will be treated as domestic terrorism. But don’t expect the legacy media to focus on that part. They’d rather show you a few drum circles and pretend there’s a revolution happening.
Meanwhile, back in the real world, Elon Musk is staying the course. At a recent company meeting, he assured workers the Tesla Model Y would remain the world’s best-selling car in 2025. He dismissed the chaos, calling out the “psycho” vandals for what they are—and he’s right.
Let’s not forget: Tesla’s stock surged 70% after Trump won in November. That was real investor confidence—not just in Tesla, but in what happens when an America First administration partners with a visionary businessman who gets things done. Yes, the stock has seen some short-term turbulence—but 7 million Teslas are already on the road, with more to come.
Musk summed it up perfectly: “There are rocky moments, there is stormy weather, but the future is incredibly bright.” That’s not just optimism—that’s the Trump-Musk doctrine.
Saturday’s protests were a sideshow. The real story is that Trump and Musk are reshaping the future—and no amount of angry signs or media spin is going to stop it. The deep state is being dismantled piece by piece. The swamp is draining. And the left knows it.
Let them honk their horns and wave their signs. Meanwhile, America gets back to work.
