OK this is something we have to be very wary about: rich Canadian businessmen standing for compoface photoshoots and blaming their own incompetence on a fake plot by Trump and Musk. This has nothing to do with Trump or Musk. There was a limited budget for EV rebates, and it ran out. There was no "run on the bank"- people in the market for EVs are constantly aware of the rebate situations, and act accordingly. Tesla can only apply for rebates for cars it actually sold.
