No shit.

If someone will be willing to enforce the law, and can successfully do so, the Constitution may be saved.
If not, we de facto have a king, regardless of de jure court rulings.

There was a day, not too long ago, where I’d seriously considered buying a Tesla. And I nearly did.
As of today, I for one will never buy a single Tesla product - not a car, not a truck, not a battery, not a robot, whatever - for as long as I live.
And no decision from Tesla leadership will change my mind at this point. Fuck them.
Even if that makes me a crazy old man 30-40 years from now when all this is in the past. Never means never.
