The US president responded to the Tesla owner's intention to make cuts with data on Ford and Chrysler's investments
Earlier today, the US president responded in a mocking manner to Elon Musk's pessimistic assessments, that he has a "super bad feeling" about the US economic outlook and that he wants to cut jobs at Tesla by 10%.
Joe Biden commenting on the jobs report released in the US today noted among other things:

"While Musk talks about it, Ford is increasing its investment, overwhelmingly. I think Ford is increasing investment in building new electric vehicles. Six thousand employees, I might add, in the Midwest. The former Chrysler Corporation is also making similar investments in electric vehicles. Intel is adding 20,000 new jobs in computer chip production. So, you know, good luck on his trip to the moon."
Biden's reaction was more than expected as the White House is in an open line of confrontation with the Tesla CEO.
Elon Musk, who has been highly critical of Biden's economic policies, had recently called the US president a "stuffed puppet" and that he treats the American public like fools.
At the time, the White House posted a tweet with the president praising Tesla's competitors, General Motors and Ford, for their work in developing electric vehicles.
