President Trump and top conservatives are sounding the alarm over a wave of violent attacks targeting Tesla vehicles and dealerships across America. These attacks include arsons, shootings, and vandalism with political messages like “RESIST” and “Nazi cars” spray-painted on property. Trump calls it “domestic terrorism” fueled by left-wing groups, while Democrats face criticism for staying silent as the violence escalates.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham slammed Democrats for refusing to condemn the attacks, accusing them of supporting political violence when it suits their agenda. She compared the Tesla attacks to the 2020 BLM riots, where Democrats downplayed destruction in cities. Ingraham argues the left fears Elon Musk’s efforts to expose government waste through his Department of Government Efficiency role.
Attorney General Pam Bondi confirmed the attacks are being treated as domestic terrorism, with potential five-year prison sentences for those caught. Recent incidents include a Tesla collision center in Las Vegas set ablaze with Molotov cocktails, Cybertrucks torched in Kansas City, and dealerships shot up in Oregon and Colorado. Despite FBI investigations, few arrests have been made.
Elon Musk called the attacks “psycho” behavior, questioning why critics would burn cars instead of simply not buying them. He accused “woke” activists of targeting him for opposing left-wing policies. Meanwhile, Illinois State Treasurer Michael Frerichs blamed Musk’s government role for hurting Tesla’s stock price, calling it a “distraction” – a claim conservatives call hypocritical.
Democrats face heat for supporting far-left groups that promote violence while claiming to oppose extremism. Critics note prominent Democrats like Bernie Sanders and AOC have criticized Musk as an “oligarch” but won’t denounce attacks on his businesses. This double standard mirrors their support for BLM riots while condemning peaceful right-wing protests.
The attacks highlight growing tensions over Musk’s partnership with the Trump administration to slash bureaucratic waste. Ingraham argues the left fears Musk’s efficiency reforms will expose corrupt spending programs, prompting desperate measures to stop him. Trump vows no leniency for attackers, promising “20 years in jail” for those convicted.
Conservatives warn the violence reflects a broader leftist strategy to intimidate opponents. Filmmaker Ami Horowitz compared the Tesla attacks to 2020’s “Summer of Love” chaos, blaming Democratic megadonors for funding anti-Musk activism. Meanwhile, Tesla executives have sold $100 million in stock amid the turmoil, signaling falling confidence in the company’s stability.
As investigations continue, Republicans urge voters to reject Democrat-backed chaos and protect businesses from political violence. They argue the left’s refusal to condemn attacks on Tesla – a symbol of American innovation – proves they prioritize power over public safety. With tensions rising, America faces a choice between order and woke-fueled anarchy.
