Sheryl Crow Says ‘So Long Tesla’ and Dumps Her Car in Reaction to ‘President Musk,’ Donating Proceeds to NPR


Sheryl Crow had her Tesla towed away, with sale proceeds going to NPR, in response to Elon Tusk becoming Trump's right-hand man and cutting programs.

But whatever support the environmentally minded singer formerly had for the EVs has been superseded by her alarm at the rightward political turn taken by the man she now calls “President Musk,” and so she is saying: “So long Tesla.” Crow is part of a wave of liberally minded Tesla owners who have decided they can no longer drive cars so closely associated with the world’s richest man, now that he has been set up by President Donald Trump as seemingly his closest advisor. The immediate responses to Crow’s Tesla-farewell message fell along predictable lines, with many applauding her for the move, and some conservatives — who have long ridiculed the singer for her progressive stances — finding a fresh reason to slam her activism.
