This means, too, that Tesla hasn’t hit the milestone Musk promised back in January, when he told investors that the company would launch “unsupervised full self-driving as a paid service in Austin in June … no one in the car.”
Back in 2015 he claimed fully autonomous driving would be available in 3 years (by 2018) and since then it was always a year or two away. Why does anyone believe anything he says?
"From a technology standpoint, Tesla will have a car that can do full autonomy in about three years, maybe a bit sooner."

NO, it's not safe. They're designed by a nazi that only cares about profit, and doesn't give a shit about his nazi cars setting people on fire, or driving families off cliffs. After all the doors are locked, and can't be opened - of course.
Get these the fuck off the road.

Sure, but Elon isn’t charismatic in the slightest.

Kind of disingenuous to say that. He has some sort of weird nerd charisma. Prior to him revealing how much of an asshole he is, he had way more people that thought he was cool, myself included.

I don't think Musk or Trump have any charisma, but apparently a lot of people see (inherited) wealth as charisma.

Trump has always been a petty shithead loser. He was mocked back in the 80s for being creepy around women, running failed businesses, and not paying his contractors.

No it isn't.
The only way for someone to think he was some awkward autistic rizz master. Was to be fooled.
At one point it was possible to not be paying attention. Getting distracted by the smoke screen etc. But even the most basic look into him and his history. No one would ever mistake him for someone with charisma or talent.
