Tesla’s stock roared back to life this week, surging 20% after a brutal year of declines. The rebound came as conservative leaders like President Trump and Elon Musk teamed up to boost confidence in the electric car company. Meanwhile, failed Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz got caught celebrating Tesla’s crash—only to be humiliated when folks found out his own state’s pension fund owns over a million Tesla shares.
Walz, the Minnesota governor, made headlines last week when he joked about watching Tesla’s stock drop “to give me a little boost during the day.” He even told Tesla owners to rip the brand’s logo off their cars with dental floss. But the laughter stopped when Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary blasted Walz as a “complete moron” for not realizing Minnesota’s retirement savings are tied to Tesla. Turns out, Walz’s pension fund holds 1.6 million shares. Oops.
The stock’s comeback started when President Trump hosted a Tesla-themed event at the White House, calling the company a symbol of American innovation. Commerce Department officials openly urged investors to buy Tesla stock, despite ethics experts crying foul. Then Elon Musk held a town hall, begging employees and retail investors to hold their shares. The message worked: $7.3 billion flowed into Tesla from everyday Americans tired of watching the left trash their investments.
Democrats like Walz have spent months attacking Musk since he joined Trump’s administration to cut government waste. But their hatred backfired. While Walz mocked Tesla, hardworking Minnesotans watched their pensions shrink. Even fellow Democrat Dean Phillips called Walz’s antics “appalling,” saying his party has lost its way siding with “literal people” who can’t take a joke.
Walz tried to backtrack, claiming his comments were just “smartass” humor. But nobody’s buying it. His flip-flop came as Tesla’s stock kept climbing, proving again that Trump and Musk’s pro-growth policies beat the left’s negativity. While Walz whines, Musk is focused on new affordable models, robotaxis, and the Optimus robot—real solutions for America’s future.
The left’s Tesla tantrums turned violent too. Radicals torched dealerships in Las Vegas, shot up stores in Oregon, and even harassed a mom driving her Tesla in Washington. A masked activist screamed that her car was “Nazi” propaganda. President Trump vowed to hunt down these “terrorists,” while AG Pam Bondi promised justice.
It’s clear: the left cares more about hating Trump and Musk than protecting jobs or pensions. They used to love Tesla as a green status symbol. Now they burn cars and cheer falling stocks—even if it hurts their own voters. Meanwhile, conservatives are building, innovating, and making Americans richer.
The lesson? When Trump and Musk team up, America wins. And when out-of-touch liberals like Tim Walz mock hardworking investors, they get exposed as hypocrites. Tesla’s rebound isn’t just about stocks—it’s a wake-up call for the left to stop the rage and start supporting American greatness again.
