Schnitz ◴[] No.43603884[source]
Targeting Elon’s companies is a very smart play in this trade war. It has little to no economic impact in the EU but at the same time has a big impact on him, it might drive a wedge between him and Trump and it also pushes him into an obvious conflict of interest. The US started treating everyone else like an adversary, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the favor is being returned.

100% tariff on all Teslas, regardless of which factory they come from.

A total ban on all advertising on Twitter.

This should get the orange man's attention.

Can’t tariff Germany’s factory- how would you even go about legislating that?

The way to go about it so to start mandating that all cars have rain sensors, or dashboard instruments or HUD, or radar if they do TACC or parking sensors - things that most other cars have, but would be a pain for Tesla to add back in for just one region

You can target specific companies with sanctions, like they have done with Russian oligarchs.
