Sales of Tesla electric cars fell 13% in the last three months as boycotts over Elon Musk’s political views continue to keep buyers away.

The company has devoted resources to autonomous driving rather than developing new models to attract car buyers.

The billionaire, whose ties with the president have frayed in the past month, attacked GOP lawmakers backing the Trump’s spending bill while boosting its critics.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump took aim at Musk for the subsidies his companies have received, particularly for electric vehicles. Trump said without them, Musk would "probably have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa." Trump had also said "we'll have to look" when asked if he would consider deporting Musk.
