I guess since Elon Musk successfully silenced Senator ‘Karen’ Elizabeth Warren, KISS singer Gene Simmons sought to fill her role. Just like Warren, Simmons was humiliated as Musk set the record straight as the singer spewed misinformation all over Twitter. The two were locked in a three-way battle between Simmons, Musk, and Biden with Musk under attack for not being unionized enough.
Musk replied to both KISS co-founder Gene Simmons and President Joe Biden in the same Twitter response to address his company’s non-union status, noting he “will do nothing to stop” a union vote at his company.
The unique reply to the leader of an iconic rock band and the president of the United States followed a comment from Simmons that positively referred to Musk’s Tesla success as “game changers and should be heralded.”
“Actually, @elonmusk makes a solid point to Pres @JoeBiden. The President doesn’t mention Tesla, perhaps because Tesla is non-union and moved to Texas, a “right to work” state. Give Elon Musk/Tesla its due. They are game-changers and should be heralded,” Simmons wrote.

In an initial reply to Simmons, Musk noted Tesla has built two-thirds of all electric vehicles in North America. He claimed the total is twice as much as all other carmakers combined.
“Actually, we still operate our California factory, which is the largest auto plant in North America, at full capacity and are considering expanding it significantly,” Musk wrote.
“It has built 2/3 of all electric vehicles in North America, twice as much as all other carmakers combined,” he added.

Musk explained that in the Bay Area there is zero unemployment and that employees have their pick of who they want to work for. He doubled down and welcomed an inter-company vote on unionization.
“Our real challenge is Bay Area has negative unemployment, so if we don’t treat and compensate our (awesome) people well, they have many other offers and will just leave!” he wrote.
“I’d like hereby [sic] to invite UAW to hold a union vote at their convenience. Tesla will do nothing to stop them,” he added.

Musk has been extremely vocal on Democrat policies and mandates that he does not support. Despite everything he does for his country, the left has tried to turn the business into a political punching bag. Musk always manages to humiliate them, however.
