Hundreds protest Elon Musk, Donald Trump outside Tesla dealership in Owings Mills
Nearly 300 protesters gathered outside the Tesla dealership in Owings Mills on Saturday, waving homemade signs as drivers slowly passed by beeping their horns in a show of support.
Demonstrators gathered outside Tesla stores across the U.S. on Saturday to protest the automaker's billionaire CEO, Elon Musk, and his push to slash government spending on behalf of President Donald Trump.
Baltimore resident James Power, 64, was among the hundreds who turned out for the "Tesla Takedown" protest in Owings Mills.
"To be honest, I just saw something on a website, and it wasn't even a political website, about a Tesla protest. And I felt like, we can go to protests, we can march, we can do all kinds of stuff, but I felt like this one was a little bit different in that it could have a potential to have a financial impact," Power told The Banner.
The demonstrations are part of a growing backlash to Musk's disruptive role in Washington.
