Trumpism is not a philosophy or a movement. It's a cult.

Interesting article, although the price itself has yet to go into "insane mode."

I would've predicted the stock to sink like a stone given what's happened to oil.
Electric-what?  A lightly used BIG Toyota 4-runner is in my future if gas prices stay low for a few years  :P

On an equally insane note, would this make the Tesla prices go parabolic?

I could be wrong, but I don't think Tesla buyers were ever out to save on gas. To avoid gas, maybe, but not to save money.

The economics would never work out.  Cheaper fuel is icing not the cake
