As hornmpa points out, TSLA has been irrationally overvalued for years and far more shorts have been burned than have profited. It's stock price is a joke, but I won't short it because there is no telling what Elon and Donnie can cook up to inflate TSLA stock price. The president has been recommending people buy the stock and the cars already, whats to stop them from artificially propping up the price by buying shares through the sovereign wealth fund, or the US army to decide to buy a million cybertrucks? Who is going to say no? Trump could declare it's in the interest of national security or some shit, and all will be greenlighted. There are simply very few checks on their power right now.
There are plenty of other overvalued stocks to consider shorting that aren't in the middle of our idiocratic culture war, and subject to the whims of Donnie and Elon. When there is no rationale for a stocks valuation and it trades irrationally for years, you might as well just go to Vegas and score some coke and hookers while you're gambling.
