Is anyone buying Teslas in blue states, since Twitter/X, Nazi saluting, DOGE, etc.?

All states are purple. Of course there's folks in "blue" states that are buying Teslas. And there's folks in "red" states that are boycotting Tesla.

That's because the map just shows discrete pixels of blue/red, one for each person.

Only those who don’t care about what’s happening and keep their heads down in order to maintain their perfect and convenient lives.

Too true. Beautiful country though and the people were friendly.
