Last week, Elon Musk, the Tesla, SpaceX, and Starlink CEO gave an interview where he called out the unions’ “stranglehold” on the Democrat party, calling it “next-level insanity.”

During the hour-long interview, Musk criticized the Democratic Party, their relationship with labor unions, and Tesla’s exclusion from a White House electric vehicles event because the company is not unionized.

Musk took particular issue with the Democratic Party’s strong relationship with union leadership.

“The general public is not aware of the degree to which unions control the Democratic Party. One does not need to speculate on this point,” Musk started.

Musk’s two largest enterprises, Tesla and SpaceX, are not unionized. Musk attributes this decision not to unionize to the “negative unemployment” in the Bay Area. The employees at either company have multiple other job opportunities they could pursue, Musk claims.

“Last year, Biden held an EV summit where Tesla was explicitly not allowed to come, but the [United Auto Workers] was. So, Tesla has made two-thirds of all the electric vehicles in the United States,” Musk said during his interview.

“So, deliberately excluding us from an EV summit at the White House, but including UAW, tells you everything you need to know,” he said.

I'm not so sure that's the source of the insanity these days.  The democrat party has basically started throwing the average blue-collar worker - i.e., the traditional union-member - under the bus, so it's unlikely that the unions representing those traditional union members still control the DNC.
