From Fox News: Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., was mocked by conservatives on social media Friday after he posted a video on X explaining he was getting rid of his Tesla because of the optics brought by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who Kelly referred to as an “a–hole.”

Kelly, a retired astronaut, said he bought a Tesla because it was “fast like a rocket ship” but now it feels like “a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people.”

The Arizona senator and military veteran said it’s been difficult driving around in a Tesla knowing the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has cut jobs at the Department of Veterans Affairs. Kelly said today would be his last day driving a Tesla.

“When I bought this thing, I didn’t think it was going to become a political issue. Every time I get in this car in the last 60 days or so, it reminds me of just how much damage Elon Musk and Donald Trump are doing to our country,” Kelly said in the video, which was viewed over 1.5 million times just two hours after it was posted.


“I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired! New ride coming soon,” Sen. Kelly declared.

Kelly is being widely mocked over his video. As of Saturday afternoon, it has received 8.9 million views.
