I’ve been getting a lot of calls over the past few days, and the interesting thing is none of them are about Donald Trump. They’re all about Elon Musk. My constituents, and a majority of this country, put Trump in the White House, not this unelected, weirdo billionaire.

“What if the UAW are right about what is good for them?” would be a lot more convincing if they were not cheering on the destruction of the industry they work in. We’re capable of recognizing CEOs as economically irrational, unions can be too.

I wonder if in the future universities should raise these funds as insurance when the interest rate environment is much better. Stanford got a steal on bond issuances (like 1%-2% or something) a few years ago. I bet these are probably 6-7% or something?

Only about 35% of UAW members work in the auto industry. Only about 25% work for the two US auto manufacturers (GM and Ford).
