“Elon Musk knew, long before he so strongly Endorsed me for President, that I was strongly against the EV Mandate. It is ridiculous, and was always a major part of my campaign. Electric cars are fine, but not everyone should be forced to own one. Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far, and without subsidies, Elon would probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa. No more Rocket launches, Satellites, or Electric Car Production, and our Country would save a FORTUNE. Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this? BIG MONEY TO BE SAVED!!!” @realDonaldTrump

“To show people how spoiled Countries have become with respect to the United States of America, and I have great respect for Japan, they wont take our RICE, and yet they have a massive rice shortage.

“Jerome Too Late Powell, and his entire Board, should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this to happen to the United States. They have one of the easiest, yet most prestigious, jobs in America, and they have FAILED — And continue to do so.

“Not that it really matters, but a terribly untalented writer for badly failing Forbes Magazine, Dan Alexander, who probably cant get a meaningful job in the business, has written so inaccurately about me that it is ridiculous. Many others also, the media is mostly Fake News, but Forbes doesnt even try to get things right. I havent spoken to these SleazeBags in years, they dont want the facts, and theyre so inaccurate (purposely!) about everything. I would have thought Forbes would be DEAD by now, but it continues to hang around like a bad disease. Isnt it owned by a hostile nation? Anyway, thats what happens when you have bad reporters with evil intentions. Eventually the publication dies. Ive happily seen it over, and over, again!” @realDonaldTrump
