Because of ethical restraints it is extremely rare for a senior government official, let alone a sitting president, to endorse a consumer product so explicitly.
Yeah… Those were good times.
Do they not fucking remember the whole Goya thing last time. He literally shot a commercial from the presidents desk.

it’s got electrolytes
it’s what plants crave
Like we needed another reason not to buy tesla
In parallel universes where he wasn’t born of a rich family, Trump is a car salesman. This is our universe trying to find balance.
He hasn’t got the charisma, the financial sense, or trustworthiness to become a used car salesman.
Yet here we are.
A used car salesman
Keep boycotting, and join protests outside Tesla showrooms. ~60% of Musk’s wealth is in Tesla shares. Tank the stock and tank his wealth and thus influence
There are protests all across the US and starting to spring up in other countries. Here’s a list of upcoming ones + a guide to help organize one around you if none exist
This is the easiest boycott of my life. I love it
gross
Gross indeed
Gross indubitably
Gross absolutely

this whole gambit was actually a 4d chess move by elon to brainwash righties into buying EVs therefore solving climate change and bringing about global communism. I never should have doubted you, sir
I see Elon brought his body armor.
He still doesn’t wear a helmet, so…
Rita repulsa zaps Orange Turidno. Laughs. Turdo goes Biggly.
The Dipshit starts flailing arms around, slapping multiple children as armor.
Power Rangers theme starts playing.
How long till a President ends a speech with “smash that like and subscribe for 10% off RAID: Shadow Legends”?
He is already kind of doing it, just replace Raid Shadow Legends with Russia.
when your influence is dying due to your hubris you become desperate and pull something out like this.
Are there laws in the US about such conflicts of interest or was is basically tradition until this point not to do shit like this?
Laws are as good as the ability and will to enforce them.
Good point… I guess I’m still curious if there could be a way he gets taken to court for this, but probably now.
Because of ethical restraints, it is extremely rare for a senior government official, let alone a sitting president, to endorse a consumer product so explicitly. In 2017, when then-Trump counselor Kellyanne Conway told Americans to buy from Ivanka Trump’s clothing line, she received a warning from a government ethics office and promised never to do it again.
President Musk told his employee to do a photoshoot.
This story makes no sense any other way.
does trump even drive.
He can’t, former and current presidents aren’t allowed to
I assume he lacks the ability as well
Huh, TIL. Thanks for sharing this info.
I will bet you the entire nation of Russia that he has no clue how to operate a vehicle other than a matchbox car. zoom zoom
I’m not surprised. Didn’t Donald Trump used the Oval Office once to promote some… ketchup or sauce or something, and was paid for? I mean it denigrades the station of the office, but does he really care?
He literally sold the Resolute Desk to Goya for ad space.
This is after he did a Mcdonalds/Dominos ad when he had them cater the NCAA basketball champions’ dinner at the White House.
It’s what he does.
Goya beans
Snake Oil Feedback Loop achievement unlocked.
Tradeable?! What in the world…
Searching on Google “how to sell my tesla” or “how to sell my tesla stock” hurts their shares. Scheduling a test drive and not showing up wastes their time and resources :)
I like the cut of your jib!
Well if I’m gonna schedule a test drive i may as well test the hell out of it, no?
Read those waivers and see how much you can get away with 😈 “oops, I lost control and scratched the shit out of the side”
