Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly (D) says he’s looking for a “new ride” and is going to get rid of his Tesla, which he says was “built and designed by an a‑‑hole.”
“I’m here in Washington driving to work for the last time in my Tesla,” Kelly said in a video posted on the social platform X. “When I bought this thing, I didn’t think it was going to become a political issue.
“Every time I get in this car in the last 60 days or so, it reminds me of just how much Elon Musk and Donald Trump is doing to our country. Talking about slashing Social Security, cutting health care benefits for poor people, for seniors. It’s one bad thing after the next,” he said of Musk’s actions as the lead of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Kelly also said Musk is firing veterans.
“I’m a veteran. So I have a really hard time driving around in this thing,” he said of his Tesla. “I think it’s time for an upgrade today.”
While he said there are some things he really liked about his Tesla and some things he didn’t like, “that doesn’t matter.”
