Summary
Carlos Slim’s telecom giant, América Móvil, canceled $22 billion in planned Starlink orders after Elon Musk insinuated Slim had ties to drug cartels.
The decision, made within hours of Musk’s tweet, costs Musk his main partner in 25 countries and shifts business to Chinese and European competitors, further reducing U.S. commercial influence.
Musk’s increasing political entanglements and conspiracy-laden posts are alienating key business partners and consumers, with potential ripple effects on Tesla sales.
Elon really is his own worst enemy. Buying Twitter was such a bad idea on multiple levels.

This is a man whose only good ideas have been to buy other people’s good ideas with his father’s blood money.
Would you want to live with him!? Though I guess if you were him, you presumably could have some introspection and choose not be an entitled Nazi asshole…
