    cybertruck was announced 2019. presumably pre-orders opened then too. for a long time, you where legally not allowed to sell that thing (maybe still today - can’t be bothered looking up tesla news). so there are for sure a lot of cybertruck owners, who bought it before he was a part of trump admin.

    and even if you where allowed to sell it now - who would buy that pile of sheet metal?

      Pre-orders were $1000 payment that was refundable. They absolutely could have cancelled and gotten their money back.

          He was already full blown Nazi when the release happened. Anyone who bought one is complicit

            All I’m saying is that lots of the people with reservations did not end up purchasing one. Just expanding on your assertion.

              I’m agreeing with you as well. I’m saying if they didn’t cancel when the truck dropped, that’s on them. Anyone seen driving one can catch birds all day.
