Summary
Elon Musk gave Donald Trump a scripted sales pitch during a White House event where Trump inspected Teslas.
Photographers captured Trump holding notes with phrases like “SAFEST car” and “affordable.” The stunt followed a 15% drop in Tesla’s stock, linked to backlash over Musk’s involvement in DOGE.
Trump defended Musk on Truth Social, blaming the decline on a “Radical Left” boycott.
Meanwhile, Musk’s other ventures, including X and SpaceX, are struggling with outages and test failures.
Biden did tons wrong I disagree with and will give him crap for every bit of it. But riding around in a Ford to celebrate new EV models being produced wouldn’t make it any higher than maybe #500 on the list.
Then comparing Trump to Biden, nothing Biden has done, with the exception of not dropping out from a second term run, comes close to Trump’s bullshit.
