    I wonder how many Trump supporters buy electric cars or solar panels?

      Yeah it was a pretty dumb business move by Elon to become such a loud right-wing shithead when his core demographic of customers are people who are concerned about climate change.

        Depends on the way it’s framed. If you frame it as providing off-grid energy for the unreliable electricity grid provided by the country and less dependence on foreign oil, you can probably sell to the right wing as well.Because fuck the government and fuck foreigners.

          The problem is they’ve mostly now been negatively polarized against non-polluting energy.

      I just started a job selling solar. And I was told more right wing leaning people buy more systems if you push the “off grid” option.

        Well then you have power when the SHTF.

        And many right learners expect that any day now.

      Well my Trump voting brother in law has solar and he bitches because it’s underperforming but is surrounded by trees and wont trim them so he just goes on bitching that solar is not the answer.

      All of them talk like they do but they’re driving 2002 Dodge Ram 2500s between DUIs.
