  1. That’s coming from a guy who’s selling Tesla! Biden must pay attention change his nonsense policies and start drilling

  2. Counter intuitive no just FREAKING COMMON SENSE!!!🤔🤔😉😉😳😳🙄

  3. We need hydrogen paste and CO2 battery's and modern doped metals

  4. Musk has the common sense that lack in US politics

  5. Why hasn't this gone viral???

  6. The ignorance and arrogance from liberals regarding climate, electric vehicles and fossil fuels is overwhelming. And they have the audacity to claim they are the educated political party. They may be educated but they aren't smart, commonsense and reason is something they're brand of education ignores. Liberals push for all electric power , including transportation, home, industry and agricultural lacks one important ingredient, more infrastructure to make their insane ideas work. In California for instance they're half wit governor has allocated hundreds of millions of dollars to support illegal immigrants you free this free that and all at tax payers expense. We've seen countless times when CA electric grid was shut down due to high temperatures or forest fires but idiot Newsom passes laws banning or limiting the use of anything that uses fossil fuels. What we don't hear from these simpletons is any plan about supporting the use of everything electric. The fact that two thirds of electric power is generated by fossil fuels like coal fired plants there has been no talk about building the infrastructure to support all these ignorant ideas of going all electric. Has anyone seen pictures of rush hour traffic in Southern and Northern California? The roads are basically parking lots with cars inching along. Everything comes to a stop when an accident happens or a construction project is in progress so what happens to all these electric cars ? they die right in the middle of the road. One thing Democrats are really good at is extremely bad planning.

  7. Maybe it's time to crumble given all the corruption.

  8. "We're going to run out of these fossil fuels, so let's just move to the future." –Elon Musk

  9. Wow how come Joe Biden isn't behind Tesla and Elon

  10. That’s kind of the point. They need it to crumble

  11. Elon has enough intelligence that he is able to admit the truth.

  12. Was Greta there to hear that?

  13. He is speaking the truth you cannot survive on electricity alone don’t let the Democrats brainwash you

  14. It is past time to REMOVE and Imprison all the CORRUPT Politicians that have shut down the US Energy Sector. The entire World needs America's Energy Production

  15. It should be just common since for anyone to see

  16. “In the short term” you goofballs

  17. They want Western Civilization, especially, the UNITED STATES! The Constitution is a problem. The CO2/ Climate Hustle goes back to the warm period when Stonehenge was built…they were so happy it was warming.

  18. What do you think Joe Biden and the Democrats have been up to , clear your heads and think ?

  19. In Los Angeles EVs are coal cars* i.e. they are running on coal produced electricity. California legislators are not rational, if they are afraid of energy from oil and coal; afraid of growth from especially automobiles and energy and real estate.
    *term coined by Alex Epstein author of “Fossil Future”.
    In France EVs are running on nuclear power provided electricity.

  20. I think he’s absolutely right

  21. No doubt that renewable, green power is our future, but it is not our present.
    The race to renewable energy is a relay, not a sprint.

  22. Says the electric car maker. He understands it. Some of us understands it. Why is the woke left not getting it?

  23. Any reasonable person would conclude that but not one Democrat would.

  24. Can you make a video explaining how beginners can make huge profit within a short period of time? I mean i was at a seminar and the host spoke about making well over $880,000 within 4months of investing $150,000 i just need to know how.

  25. Light weight materials are largely derived from petrochemicals.

  26. Has anyone considered that during the two energy crises, and stagflation in the 1970s people were desperately trying every alternative energy sources imaginable, including solar, and wind? Hydroelectric dams, nuclear reactors, and fossil fuels survived. Has anyone considered that solar, and wind didn't work then, and doesn't work now, especially as a sole source. The only place they work is in the shallow thinking minds of naive Green zealots, and vote gathering politicians. Windmills require subsidies to run, which is a double cost to taxpayers.
    You want a solution?! Get rid of planned obsolescence. An item that last twice as long uses half the energy, produces half the carbon dioxide, reduces landfill waste by half, and may reduce toxic pollution.

  27. Ridiculous he is talking about European Arab mafia oil trading

  28. "Everything the Left touches goes to 'itsh'."

  29. Do some research David. Or you should keep your uniform opinion to yourself not show your ignorance on national media

  30. Tell that to ELMER FUDD OUR PRESIDENT

  31. Why is this so hard for Socialist Democrats to understand? The Davos Fascist Climate Cult is destroying Europe, USA and everywhere it is forced on countries.

  32. We are not 40 years from that. I’m doing right now. Spreading fud
