Tesla driver receives death threats after Musk's involvement

A Tesla driver named Mitchell Feldman has reported receiving death threats and harassment since Elon Musk joined Donald Trump's team. Mitchell, a 53-year-old marketing business owner from northwest London, bought a Tesla Model Y in 2022. He was drawn to its technology and safety features. Initially, comments about his Tesla were mild and humorous. However, things changed when Musk was named head of Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency. Mitchell claims he has since received numerous threatening emails regarding his family and personal safety. He described a recent encounter in a car park where a man laughed at him and questioned his support for Musk. Despite the backlash, Mitchell remains committed to Tesla and plans to order a new Model Y. He expressed surprise at the intense polarization of views surrounding Musk, stating that people either admire him or criticize him without any middle ground. Mitchell, who previously drove an Aston Martin, appreciates the advanced technology in Tesla vehicles. He acknowledged the negative reactions but continues to support the brand. He hopes for a positive response from Musk, jokingly wishing for a free Cyber Truck.
