Washington (International News): U.S. President Donald Trump has declared his intention to purchase a branded Tesla vehicle as a show of support for billionaire entrepreneur and Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Trump described Musk as a valuable contributor to the American nation and acknowledged his role as both a donor and a close advisor.
The announcement comes amid a significant decline of over 15% in Tesla’s stock value. In response, Trump stated that he would purchase a Tesla vehicle, reinforcing his support for Musk and his ventures.
Musk, who joined the administration as an advisor during Trump’s second term to assist in cost-cutting measures, has faced mounting criticism over his policies. Consequently, Tesla has encountered a series of challenges, including public protests, legal disputes, and regulatory scrutiny.
