Self-made billionaire Elon Musk highlighted the total incompetence of Joe Biden and his administration following his State of the Union address.
Biden noted how Ford and GM are promoting electric vehicles, but ignored how another American car manufacturer, Telsa, is doing far mroe than Ford and GM combined.
Musk responded directly to Biden: “Tesla has created over 50,000 US jobs building electric vehicles & is investing more than double GM + Ford combined.” Take a look:

During his speech, Biden said, “Ford is investing $11B to build electric vehicles — creating 11,000 jobs across the country.”
“GM is making the largest investment in its history — $7B to build electric vehicles, creating 4,000 jobs in Michigan,” he added.
Musk, who is richest man in the world as well as one of the smartest, does not have any fears expressing his political opinions.
He regularly mocks and berates Democrats on social media, including Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren. This is why the White House has expressed concerns about Musk being a bad guest if invited to meet the president.
Biden’s top advisors have warned against inviting the tech mogul to the White House, according to the NY Post.
The White House fears Musk would say something that would embarrass the administration, the report adds.
Musk told CNBC that he would not embarrass the Biden administration if he were to be invited to the White House or White House-affiliated events.
“They have nothing to worry about,” said Musk. “I would do the right thing.” CNBC reports that the White House currently has no plans to invite Musk to the White House in the near future.
Musk has slammed the White House for failing to mention Tesla alongside other major electric car manufacturers while discussing the administration’s plans for major investments in electric vehicles. Meanwhile, the White House has held meetings with other corporate leaders while ignoring Musk.
