Late Night Tackles the Attacks on Tesla
Briefly

The article highlights recent incidents of vandalism against Tesla vehicles, driven by public outrage toward Elon Musk's corporate decisions. During a segment on The Daily Show, Jordan Klepper shares humorous commentary on why the public is frustrated, suggesting that the anger stems from recent layoffs, cuts to essential services, and Musk's perceived disconnect from the issues at hand. Klepper's comedic insights reveal that while Teslas may be popular as cars, public sentiment is more aligned with Musk's controversial business practices. Jimmy Kimmel adds his perspective, emphasizing that celebrating layoffs has consequences.
Jordan Klepper stated, 'If I were to hazard a guess about why they’d be mad, it might be because, in the last several weeks, you fired tens of thousands of federal workers, made cuts to veterans’ care, lifesaving foreign aid and food banks.'
Klepper humorously noted Tesla’s quirks, commenting, 'It’s got door handles that are hard to find, which is what everybody wants in a door handle.'
Kimmel explained, 'When you pull out a chain saw to celebrate firing thousands of people, they get mad.'
