President Donald Trump says he will label attacks against Tesla dealerships domestic terrorism in response to the recent spate of vandalisms against Elon Musk's EV company.
Trump made the announcement on Tuesday at the White House, as Tesla's stock came tumbling more than 50% from recent highs.
"They're bad guys. They're the same guys who screw around with our schools and universities," Trump said. "We're gonna catch you, and you're gonna go through hell."
Spokespeople for the White House and Tesla did not respond to a request for comment.
