100% agree.

Yes. Drop all subsidies for anyone, anywhere, now and forever. If the market can't/doesn't choose to support it, then whatever it happens to be is unnecessary.

But your remarks do highlight the endless logical fallacy, ad hominem and other fallacious remarks which seem to be the only defense for electric vehicle subsidies.
I ran from nothing and fully support what I said. Trump supports subsidies and you support Trump and defend his actions. Hence, how can you argue subsidies are bad?
