Donald Trump, Yesterday, on Autonomous Cars
Donald F. Trump, yesterday in Detroit:
“Do you like autonomous? Does anybody like an autonomous vehicle?
Know what that is? Right? When you see a car driving along? Some
people do, I don’t know. A little concerning to me, but the
autonomous vehicles we’re going to stop from operating.”
This, on the very day Tesla was set to hold a high-profile event to promote autonomous vehicles. This, after Elon Musk dropped to his knees and begged for Trump’s approval — exactly as Trump predicted Musk would — at one of Trump’s Hitlerjugend rallies just last week.
It’s almost enough to make you think Trump is only it for himself and will eventually betray and humiliate every single person who believes he’s on their side, and that his screws are now so loose that it only takes days, not weeks or months, for him to forget who his oligarchic ostensible allies are.
