- 🚗 He then urged the graduates to "put air in your tires," humorously comparing their potential neglect of this task to how Elon Musk views the United States Constitution – as a "mere suggestion."
- 📉 The governor concluded this point by stating that if they don't put air in their tires before winter, they will end up "just like Elon with a car that no one wants to drive."
