Elon Musk faces pressure to balance his roles as CEO of Tesla and head of a government efficiency commission for Trump. Opinion suggests Trump may ease tariff pressures to retain Musk's involvement at DOGE, despite the current backlash against Tesla from environmentally conscious buyers due to Musk's political alignment. Tesla's stock has dropped significantly amid fears of punitive tariffs, while Musk's new political extremism may further alienate its customer base as he pushes Trump's agenda. The future of Tesla hinges not only on potential tariff relief from Trump but also on Musk's ability to reconnect with consumers.
