Despite its CEO railing against Biden, Tesla was more than happy to take the administration's money.

Agree. Let's start with Tesla!

At least the charging network. We can buy it off Tesla no problem (we already have them a $17 million down payment).

Then start printing up new stickers to cover the Tesla logos.

I don’t even own an EV and I support funding this. It’s probably cheaper than the existing charger network plan anyway and would allow actually standardizing around the smaller smarter Tesla plugs too.

As a Tesla owner, I fully agree!

Let's liquidate Tesla and expand the rail network instead!
