Worth noting that Elon only gets the $1T if he can deliver >1M Robotaxis, >1M "AI bots", and bring Tesla's market cap to $8.5T. Looks like they are really doubling down on the 2018 compensation package and the idea that Elon's attention is worth more than anything. More details on the milestones can be found in the SEC statement: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1318605/000110465925...

Anything to keep him from starting a viable third party of any kind.

I was going to say he'll get DOGE to make every War Department, Department of Information Retrieval, and the Department of Not Health buy 20k unnecessary EVs ever month but then I remembered he's not on good terms with Dear Leader. Maybe he'll expand into healthcare, insurance, credit, and/or real-estate to concoct numbers to appease the market gods.
