that Germany is would be different

I hope we can agree that “different” and “not surviving” is not the same thing!

But I hope we all agree that that’s a BS argument.

No it’s not, according to the rules of the federation, no state is allowed to secede according to the constitution!!

You seem to be arguing from a personal opinion of what USA should be rather than reality of what it really is.

today we find ourselves fast approaching a situation where the federal government will have total control over the states,

Yes that’s true, and it’s not supposed to be like that, but in reality it always was a risk by the way the federation clearly always can trump the states. This is VERY different from EU, which is built with way way higher without comparison better protection of the member states.

That’s for the existing EV car park, new sales are not Tesla. Look at the numbers, Tesla doesn’t even make the list anymore!!!

This is purely in danish about Denmark, but Denmark is a country that is very big on Battery electric cars.
So it’s a big surprise to see that Tesla has fallen out of top 10 completely!!!

1 	Skoda	Elroq	      1.031
2 	Volkswagen	ID.4	633
3 	Audi	Q4 e-tron	420
4 	Toyota	bZ4X	        419
5 	Volkswagen	ID.3	403
6 	Skoda	Enyaq iV	371
7 	Cupra	Formentor	362
8 	Audi	A5	        342
9 	Cupra	Terramar	303
10 	Volkswagen	T-Roc	303

It’s absolutely insane that 9 of 10 in top 10 are from VW group!!
I’m a huge fan of what VW group is doing currently, but even I find that a bit weird?

Edit PS:

The 6 top cars on the list are BEV, so Tesla has at best the 7th most sold EV now!

and not a singular State of America. Versus something like Hungary

True, but way more similar to Germany which also became authoritarian and abandoned German democratic values under Hitler.

Will the land of mass still exist there?

That’s not at all relevant, what’s relevant is if the federation will survive, if it does USA is technically intact, even if it breaks every traditional value of USA.

If Trump established a dictatorship that wields the US military to oppress the will of the states,

That’s a strange argument IMO, since this is the foundation of USA, and was the cause for the civil war. The power of the federal government precede the states.
Contrary to EU, where any nation can leave peacefully if they wish, which was demonstrated by UK leaving.

It seems like you don’t really accept what it means for a nation to “survive”. It definitely doesn’t means everything has to be well, and as it used to be.

Yes because for poor people, it’s obviously possible to just cut on unnecessary spending, and everything is fine.
Spoken like a true malignant narcissist!

Maybe in 30 years when the patents expire.

That’s the same thing.

No.
Did for instance Hungary cease to exist when it became Communist?
Did it cease to exist again when it became democratic?
The answer to both is obviously no.

Same with USA, just because it becomes a totalitarian dictatorship is not the same as not surviving as a country.
When that happened to Germany it didn’t mean Germany ceased to exist as a country either.

For that you have to speculate that something more happens afterwards. Which isn’t mentioned in the article at all.

That was exclusively my speculation, there is no hint of that in the article.

No that’s not enough, everybody else is doing that too, and Tesla has a poor reputation to restore.
As it is, the car production by itself is a huge deficit already, only capital gains and selling CO2 tax credits made them not go red. Without that they would have been in the red with a whopping half billion USD for Q1!!!

I’m not sure it matters anymore, Tesla is almost finished as a global company anyway, basically it’s like a dead man walking.
They may remain in USA as a minor player, but their glory days are behind them.
European are very unlikely to switch to liking Tesla again, because it’s still an American company. They really can’t compete in China anymore. And their sales are destined to continue to decline in USA despite the protected market.

With Musk the decline is almost certain, as Musk is going ever more crazy, it’s very unlikely he will be able to run even a normal company.
Without Musk they will need a miracle worker, and those are very rare to follow a controversial leader like Musk.

Literally, from the article:

Marc Andreessen is predicting that at least one job is safe from the rise of AI: his own.

Yes, but it’s also actually true, that Putin repeatedly has shown zero respect for Trump.
But for some reason Trump is giving Putin a pass on everything?
But maybe someone is finally getting through to him?

Yes, but that wouldn’t provide the obvious benefits of being part of Denmark. 😋

Pam Bondi is disgusting! 🤮

More like 3 years and 8 months! So it’s actually closer to 4 years.
It’s only just begun!!!

Absolutely and Denmark has also made an offer to buy California, which would have many advantages for Trump. For one he would get rid of one of the most pesky blue states.
Many Californians have actually offered to help financing the purchase!

Den 27-årige murer Mathias kan se frem mod en folkepensionsalder på 74 år.

Jamen man skal jo lige huske at ting som automatisering slet slet ikke virker, og de offentlige finanser kan slet ikke bære flere skattelettelser til de rige, med mindre vi hæver pensionsalderen.

Når vi laver prognoser om den fremtidige økonomi, har vi en teknik hvor vi tager et stykke papir, og placerer 2 punkter, og så trækker man en lige linje med en lineal. Det er den eneste ansvarlige måde at forudse fremtiden på!!

Mathias er faktisk heldig, for hans børn skal være 117 år gamle før de kan gå på pension, og den gennemsnitlige forventede levealder til den tid forventes kun at være omkring 91.

Derfor har vi besluttet at når man fylder 70 skal man fremover have 2 jobs for at det kan hænge sammen.

I pretty much agree with the article, but I don’t see it explained what he means by “US won’t survive Trump’s next 100 days”?

I think what he really means is that democracy in USA won’t survive.
I can’t even begin to imagine how frustrating it must be to be a blue state like for instance California, and be forced through this political insanity? Also the personal frustration must be enormous for people who knew Trump would be a massive disaster.

We are cursed to live in interesting times. Could the frustrations for blue states like California become big enough for them to secede? I better go get some more popcorn!

Or made up.

I thought that was obvious, but yes absolutely.
