Good. Musk has aligned himself with a number of people that have designs on forcing Europe’s hand to abandon Ukraine and make a strong return to Russian gas and Saudi oil. Russia and the oil rich Middle East have no desire to see an energy independent Europe powered by renewables and long term battery storage.

He could be busy further developing battery technology to further enable decarbonization and energy decentralization based on renewables.

Having founded an EV company, you’d think that would be a core value he would hold, however everything he currently signals speak to the opposite.

I cannot fathom why on earth he now seems to be working against himself, and alienating his core customer base, who were most likely to buy EV’s — green, liberal, “woke”, left leaning consumers.

maybe he has plans to release a gas-powered cybertruck in a few years
