What exactly is wrong with Tesla? You are comparing apples to oranges here and Tesla are doing fine regardless. Didn't they just post a profitable quarter after meeting production goals on the model 3 and virtually the entire market betting against them?

Both companies are fine, and Shotwell is an industry veteran who is no doubt valuable to SpaceX, but don't be ridiculous to think either company would be anywhere without Elon at the helm.

I'm all for credit where credit is due but Shotwell is a completely interchangeable and irrelevant piece of the puzzle here. There are many CEO's, men and women, who could have been in her role. All of the top talent at SpaceX could have been at any other company, but it took Elon steering a ship of motivated individuals, cracking the whip, and putting it all on the line for SpaceX to get where it is.

I really don't understand this recent wave of people who until now loved the guy but after he took a page out of President Trumps say whatever you're thinking book, people hate him.
