The Chinese market is as important as the US market to Tesla. And for its critical reliance on batteries, China is more important than the US.

I listen to all 4 hours of war room daily (usually) and also read Musk on Twitter and see all the amazing things he’s been saying and doing for Twitter. I think Steve Bannon just doesn’t get how often musk points out the emperor has no clothes because Bannon hates Twitter. Instead he should get war room back on Twitter. Musk should let it back on. He was only removed because he said Fauci’s “head should be on a pike” which is a common medieval metaphor. Jane Fonda said Republicans should be all murdered yesterday and she’s likely still on Twitter. Anyway, both Bannon and musk are awesome.
