House Democrat Smacks Down Trump's Double Standard On Protests Amid Tesla Backlash
(Huff Post) Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) ripped Donald Trump on Wednesday after the president said hed label violence against Tesla dealerships as domestic terrorism as the company faces backlash over billionaire Elon Musks cost-cutting crusade. Trump, who praised Tesla electric vehicles alongside Musk outside the White House earlier this week, vowed that protesters who target the company with violence would be caught and go through hell as a result. So, Trump thinks that if you try to kill cops to overthrow the government and change an election thats not domestic terrorism, but somehow having a protest in front of a Tesla dealership is? said Moulton.
