In a bold move, US Senator Mark Kelly has traded his Tesla for a Chevy Tahoe SUV following a public feud with Elon Musk. Just days after labeling Musk an "asshole" for his perceived support of the Trump administration, Kelly shared a video of his new whip, proclaiming his excitement to cruise in this bad boy for years to come.
The 61-year-old Democrat's public spat with the Tesla CEO started after Kelly's recent visit to Ukraine, where he demanded increased support for the country under attack by Russia. Musk replied with a snarky "you're a traitor" on Twitter, alluding to Kelly's support for Ukraine. The mudslinging escalated, with Kelly even taking aim at US President Donald Trump.
"Every time I climb into this car over the past 60 days," he said, "it reminds me of all the damage Elon Musk and Donald Trump are inflicting on our country." He denounced the "erosion of social safety nets" and the "tightening of healthcare for poor and elderly people." "One disaster after another is unfolding," he concluded [source 2].
Interestingly, Kelly's new mode of transport aligns with the Democrats' political platform. As the new puppy in the White House, President Biden, has shown solidarity with union members.
The Chevy Tahoe, produced by union workers [source 1], isn't the only vehicle Kelly's traded in—his ideologies and political positions appear to have taken a similar trajectory.
What's Next for the Battle Between Kelly and Musk?
With the duo's ongoing squabble revolving around politics and power, it's unclear whether Kelly's new vehicle will mark an end to their feud. Could this be just the beginning of a race to outdo each other in green initiatives, political influence, or tech innovations? Only time will tell.
