Hillary was so far ahead in the polls, she didn’t even think about Trump any more.

The FBI was busy investigating Hillary’s corruption, and Comey simply forgot to mention the massive Russian hacking.

But to be fair, we do have proof of Russian election hacking by the Clintons.

Green Crash: Tesla’s Hong Kong Sales Collapse After Tax Breaks Are Canceled

Not a single Tesla was sold in the country in April.

Following Hong Kong’s decision to reduce incentives for electric vehicles, sales of Tesla vehicles in the country plummeted. The local government slashed a tax break for electric vehicles on April 1, which resulted in no Model S or Model X deliveries during the whole month. Data from Hong Kong’s Transportation Department also reveals only five privately owned electric vehicles were sold in May.

For a comparison, in March alone a total of 2,939 Tesla cars were registered, almost double the result of March 2016. During the first quarter of this year, new registrations were approximately 3,700.

While this collapse might seem like an insignificant local phenomenon, it actually affects the global sales of the company. During Q1, Tesla registered record sales of more than 25,000 units globally, but in the next three months deliveries fell to just over 22,000 as a result of Hong Kong’s slump. Also, the collapse reveals once again how sensitive the automaker’s performance can be to government incentive programs. However, Tesla does not agree.

“Tesla welcomes government policies that support our mission and make it easier for more people to buy electric vehicles, however, our business does not rely on it,” Tesla said in a statement quoted by Market Watch. “At the end of the day, when people love something, they buy it.”

OK, I know this is six years old, and I’m flogging this a bit. But these con artists need to be held to account, and the only time to do it is after the event when their predictions start unravelling.
