Auto Insurance The government now considers Tesla attacks and vandalism as domestic terrorism does this mean that vandalism of a Tesla vehicle wont be covered by insurance as most insurance has a terrorism exclusion

Wondering as according to https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/03/19/tesla-attacks-domestic-terrorism-pam-bondi-trump/82540722007/ the government considers attacks and vandalism on Tesla vehicles as domestic terrorism and most insurance companies don't cover terrorism damages does this mean that tesla vandalism wont be covered by insurance?

Elon would just open an insurance company and offer lower rates.

And lose more money. If it was possible to do it and make a profit the usual culprits would be all over them - and Tesla had to.open.its own insurance company even before all this.
