Washington: US President Donald Trump suggested on Wednesday that George Soros and other liberal billionaires may be behind funding attacks on Tesla in the United States.

“I believe that is part of it, yeah, there are some of them that were involved with my trials, that were, I think, probably involved with that also. And, you know, Elon [Musk] has done a very good job. He’s found tremendous waste, fraud and abuse, like levels you’ve never seen,” Trump told Newsmax when asked whether he believed Soros and other billionaires close to Democrats could be involved in attacks on Elon Musk’s business.

On Monday, US media reported, citing police, that several “incendiary” devices were found at a Tesla dealership in the city of Austin in Texas. The devices were reportedly safely removed by police without any incident.

In recent weeks, multiple Tesla vehicles have been targeted in at least 13 states across the United States, according to media reports.

Last week, Attorney General Pamela Bondi described the attacks as nothing less than domestic terrorism, highlighting that the Justice Department has already filed charges against several individuals, who could face prison sentences of up to five years. On Friday, Trump suggested sending individuals responsible for acts of vandalism against Tesla vehicles and dealerships to prisons in El Salvador.
