It would be terrible for Elon if people started vandalizing all the Tesla showrooms across the country.

While I support this, I am fairly certain that Elon doesn't care. The value of Tesla stock has very little relationship to their ability to sell cars to consumers. He killed the attempts at making a more affordable car that could get much wider adoption by the public in favor of big ugly toys for the wealthy and pivoting towards fleet sales. And that was before he was in a position to basically just tell the government to throw money at all of his various businesses.

In fact, I don't think Tesla dissolving as a company would be enough to slow Musk down at this point. Not when his shitty AI company will be getting paid to replace federal workers, and he has blank checks from NASA and the DOD to prop up Space X. And just wait until Xitter becomes the preferred payment system of the federal government.

Tesla and Rivian had special deals to promote EVs.

Lawmakers could change how Teslas, Rivians are sold in WA

A set of bills introduced by Washington lawmakers could shake up how electric vehicles like Teslas and Rivians are sold in Washington, touching on a fierce debate that has long divided EV advocates and auto dealerships.

One bill would take away a special provision that has allowed Tesla to offer test drives and sell directly to consumers at physical stores. Another bill would expand the number of EV-only manufacturers, beyond Tesla, that can sell cars directly to consumers.

How EVs are sold in Washington has been a sore topic with EV startups and climate advocates arguing against an older model of auto sales through traditional dealerships. Dealerships have argued in their defense that they represent the future of EV sales that best protects consumers.
