In Tesla’s history, sales of regulatory credits have brought in nearly $11 billion, with all of it falling pretty much directly to its bottom line.
Trump
His philosophy is to use (and lose) other people's money.
Do we really need to go back to Trump's record of stiffing contractors, bankruptcies that lost other people's money (but not Donald's), bogus charities and universities.
And there's the little matter of tax dollars that were directed to Trump owned entities during his previous administrations...over $2.5 million to Mar-a-Lago and other businesses owned by President Donald Trump.

amusing. do you think Musk is launching rockets for the US Gov for free? and what do you think those same launches would have cost if NASA had made those rockets? much more than 20 billion.
NASA couldn't have done all those launches for a penny less than 100 billion
the US tax payer is getting a bargain thanks to Elon Musk
