On the Tuesday, March 11 broadcast of “MSNBC Prime,” MSNBC host Alicia Menendez freaked out over President Donald Trump’s insistence that he would ensure the many attacks on Teslas and Tesla dealerships around the country are treated as the acts of domestic terrorism they are, declaring that he was favoring a private company.
In reality, President Trump’s decision to treat the attacks as the acts of domestic terrorism they are comes from clear, non-biased reasoning: Elon Musk is leading the Department of Government Efficiency, and the attacks on his business interests are a clear attempt to intimidate him into no longer doing what he thinks he should to cut waste, fraud, and abuse out of the federal budget.
So, in using violence and the destruction of property in an attempt to prevent a political leader from doing his job, those engaging in attacks on Teslas and Tesla dealerships are, quite obviously, committing acts of domestic terror, and only by treating them as what they are can President Trump treat them with the seriousness they deserve.
In any case, Menendez, freaking out about the matter, snapped that Trump, in fighting back against violence that was obviously rooted in politics, was taking the side of a certain company and thus acting in a corrupt manner. She first freaked out about what he said and then played a clip of him saying it.
Beginning her tirade on the matter, Menendez said, “[Y]ou also, overnight, have this post claiming that protests at Tesla dealerships are illegal. He said today he would label violence against dealerships domestic terrorism. Now, you know I am judicious in how I play this sound, but I think you need to hear it from him.”
She then played a video in which President Trump was asked if he would treat the attacks on Tesla as domestic terror. The reporter said, “Mr. President, talk to us about some of the violence that’s been going on around the country at dealerships. Some say they should be labeled domestic terrorists, because –.”
Trump, cutting in, told the journalist that he would. He said, “I will do that. I’ll do it. I’m going to stop them. We catch anybody doing it — because they’re harming a great American company. … [L]et me tell you, you do it to Tesla and you do it to any company, we’re going to catch you and you’re going to go through hell.”

Losing her mind over the president’s pledge to fight the terror campaign being waged by the left against Elon Musk, the woke MSNBC journalist contrasted his handling of the J6 prisoners with his treatment of actual domestic terror, snapping, “So, just to be clear, you protest a private company, you are labeled by this administration a domestic terrorist. You show up at the U.S. Capitol on January 6 with the intent to overturn a fair and free election, and you get a pardon.”
Watch her here:
Slamming her on X, Curtis Houck referenced the woke MSNBC host’s father’s corruption scandal, saying, “This is kinda like Alicia Menendez’s dad — former Senator Bob Menendez — having argued in his bribery trial that the gold bars at his house and cash shoved into jacket pockets were just money stored for safe keeping.”
