How Trump’s Second Term Could Be Bad For EVs, But Great For Tesla | Decoder

Author: New York Magazine
Duration: 00:41:36

Episode Shownotes​

Happy Thanksgiving! Pivot is off for the holiday, so we're bringing you an episode of Decoder with Nilay Patel. Nilay is talking about something we've discussed a lot on Pivot — Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and Tesla. How is the CEO of an electric car company, an outspoken advocate for

combating climate change, going to square his support for Trump and a Republican policy agenda centered on climate change denial? Verge transportation editor Andy Hawkins joins to make sense of it all, and to figure out how Elon and Tesla may still benefit, even if Trump's climate policy reversals and tariffs lay waste to the auto industry. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Summary​

In this episode of Decoder, guest host Nilay Patel explores the complex dynamics between Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and the future of electric vehicles (EVs). Musk's financial support for Trump's campaign raises questions about the reconciliation of his role as a climate advocate and the political realities of the Trump administration, which historically has opposed EV incentives and climate change initiatives. The discussion reveals potential regulatory relaxations under Trump that could benefit Tesla, yet identifies challenges from tariffs and the broader impact on the auto industry. Ultimately, the episode addresses the precarious position of both Tesla and emerging EV companies amid turbulent political shifts.
