While Trump praised Musk and vowed to back Tesla amid what he described as a \u201cradical left\u201d boycott, it was a piece of paper in his hand that stole the spotlight.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"329\" data-end=\"624\">Despite previously dismissing electric vehicles as impractical and claiming they were \u201conly good if you have a towing company,\u201d Trump transformed the White House lawn into a Tesla showroom on March 11. A lineup of Tesla models was put on display as he expressed his enthusiasm for the EV giant.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"626\" data-end=\"1014\">\u201cI\u2019m going to buy a brand-new Tesla,\u201d Trump announced to reporters, emphasizing that he would pay \u201cfull price\u201d for the vehicle. He also marveled at the brand\u2019s technological advancements, stating, \u201ceverything\u2019s computer.\u201d The president went on to accuse the \u201cradical left\u201d of attempting to sabotage Musk\u2019s business through a coordinated boycott, which he claims is politically motivated.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1016\" data-end=\"1309\">On Truth Social, Trump further elaborated on his stance, writing, \u201cThe Radical Left Lunatics, as they often do, are trying to illegally and collusively boycott Tesla, one of the World\u2019s great automakers, and Elon\u2019s \u2018baby,\u2019 in order to attack and do harm to Elon, and everything he stands for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1016\" data-end=\"1309\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"lazyloaded\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FOccupyDemocrats%2Fposts%2Fpfbid03gPPrqNMRv8Xut6zJfwQMk2PaFKbskkJYDQjkwfrQtea4o18deCkfpCUmZbKe82bl&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"461\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-rocket-lazyload=\"fitvidscompatible\" data-origwidth=\"500\" data-origheight=\"461\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1311\" data-end=\"1576\">As Trump\u2019s remarks drew attention, so did the paper he was holding, which quickly became a topic of online discussion. A zoomed-in photograph captured the handwritten note, listing Tesla vehicle prices, including the cost of its self-driving feature. The note read:<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1578\" data-end=\"1596\"><strong data-start=\"1578\" data-end=\"1596\">Tesla Pricing:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1597\" data-end=\"1754\">\n<li data-start=\"1597\" data-end=\"1623\"><strong data-start=\"1599\" data-end=\"1621\">Full Self Driving:<\/strong><\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1624\" data-end=\"1659\"><strong data-start=\"1626\" data-end=\"1657\">Model X \u2013 $112,490 (silver)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1660\" data-end=\"1688\"><strong data-start=\"1662\" data-end=\"1686\">CT \u2013 $114,000 (Gray)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1689\" data-end=\"1722\"><strong data-start=\"1691\" data-end=\"1720\">Model S \u2013 $108,990 (Blue)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1723\" data-end=\"1754\"><strong data-start=\"1725\" data-end=\"1752\">Model Y \u2013 $59,990 (Red)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1756\" data-end=\"1993\">Beneath the list, additional details partially obscured by Trump\u2019s thumb appeared to include a promotional statement:\u00a0<em data-start=\"1874\" data-end=\"1993\">\u201cTeslas can be purchased as low as $299\/month or $35k. All cars have self-driving, just needs to be turned on (fee).\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1995\" data-end=\"2533\">Social media quickly erupted with reactions, with many users criticizing the apparent informality of the note and questioning why the White House was seemingly hosting a live advertisement for Tesla. One Redditor wrote, \u201cI\u2019m always surprised by his ability to make me more embarrassed as an American. Like you\u2019d think there\u2019d be no pride left at this point, but he finds a way to ruin it.\u201d Another added, \u201cToo expensive for the yahoos that voted for him, and they\u2019re so dumb they wouldn\u2019t be able to figure out the control panel anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2535\" data-end=\"2939\">Others raised concerns over the implications of the event, with one commenter questioning, \u201cWhy is the White House orchestrating an exclusive, live commercial for the richest man on Earth and a specific private sector company?\u201d Another Reddit user suggested that Trump should be \u201cimpeached\u201d for allegedly using \u201cofficial White House press events to do literal advertisements for his billionaire friends.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2941\" data-end=\"3223\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">The event, intended as a display of support for Musk, quickly turned into a viral spectacle. Whether viewed as a sincere endorsement, a strategic PR stunt, or an outright sales pitch, Trump\u2019s Tesla moment has left the internet buzzing\u2014and it\u2019s unlikely to be forgotten anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump\u2019s latest White House event took an unexpected turn when a seemingly routine show of support for Tesla and its CEO, Elon Musk, became a viral sensation.
