I keep forgetting that you’re still alive Want me to sell more stock, Bernie? Just say the word What a deeply offensive thing to say. Dude, why? He said nothing wrong. I mean I'm a big fan and admirer of yours and a Tesla owner but there are no excuses to what @SenSanders said. Anyone who follows me knows that I am not a Bernie Sanders fan. However, I have mentioned in the past my respect for @elonmusk and the things he has done. However, this tweet from Elon is disgusting. Elon, you just guaranteed that I will never be a customer for a Tesla. https://t.co/sM0sjb4mrH One of the most vile tweets in the history of this bird site. https://t.co/ZwIUOLvMVr It must kill you to realize more and more as the years pass that no matter how much money you have you'll never be cool What a deeply gross and inhumane thing to say.
