Trump Buys Tesla Model S to Support Musk

President Donald Trump recently purchased a red Tesla Model S to express support for Elon Musk amid ongoing protests against Musk's leadership and Tesla's significant stock decline. During a White House event, Trump praised Musk for his contributions and called him a 'great patriot', stating the purchase was to show confidence in Musk and Tesla. Despite not being allowed to drive, Trump confirmed the Tesla will be used by White House staff. This purchase comes as Tesla faces backlash and a severe drop in stock prices, attributed to Musk's controversial management decisions. Trump has been criticized for turning the White House into a promotional platform for Musk’s company, with ethics concerns raised about the use of presidential influence for private gain. The event also featured discussions about other Tesla models, highlighting the close relationship between Trump and Musk.
