“While Trump cuts programs you need to live, he’s turning the White House into a car dealership to advertise his unelected shadow president’s failing company,” said one critic.
How far the WH has fallen. Oval Office as a prop for fucking GoYa beans before.
Damn US is an actual embarrassment right now, whichever way you lean around the world, conservative or liberal.
“Right now”…? Haven’t been paying attention since 2015? Or 2001? Or 1980…?!
How much did he charge us for this?
Not the first time tin cans are being promoted by the white house. Looks like it’s getting to be a regular event.
Starting to thing Tesla is this governments Brawndo, as we are watching the plot from Idiocracy play out.
Here’s hoping these out-of-touch losers somehow Streisand Effect themselves out of existence
Isn’t this illegal, Impeach him again.
Oh this time they get him /s
I agree it may be futile, but whatever it takes to obstruct the damage he can do is helpful
Blatant conflict of interest and corruption. such a disgrace
It’s not though.
Elon even said if there was a conflict of interest, he’d decide whether to step back or not. Since he’s there and involved, it’s pretty obvious there’s no conflict! Logic.
Like really, you have this guy who is pushing fossil fuels and fracking and has an agenda against cleaner energy options… but then goes and supports this dudes company… like if trump had morals he would be breaking all of them… but clearly he doesn’t and I’m sure if you followed the money it would all make sense.
Those rules apply to everyone else, EXCEPT the president and congressmen
and SCOTUS
If a bunch of conservatives buy Teslas to own the libs and end up accelerating the decline of ICE vehicles that would be pretty funny.
My dad proudly declared that even maga hates Teslas, and this won’t help at all. His sister called about two hours later and said she thinks she’d like to buy a Tesla…
Taking a loan to buy a tesla to then hide in the garage to own the libs.
They do absolutely love an opportunity to be scammed of they think it’s part of a culture war stand.
Maybe all the money they’ll make on their Trump coin can pay for…oh, wait…
It would definitely make this liberal cry from laughter.
If it stops them from coal rolling…
It’s worth watching the video…
After he gets in you can still kind of hear what they’re saying.
trump has to ask what the two pedals do…
Elmo asked him if he wanted to drive, and Trump had to ask a handler if they wanted him to drive and they said he could. Elmo tried to reassure him that it was “just like a golf cart” but trump panicked and got out pretty quickly.
He was desperate for someone to tell him not to, but everyone was fine with it.
Then he made some quip about Biden not even being able to get in it, and us much as I dislike Biden, at least a couple of years ago he was still capable of driving:

It’s probably been 50 years since trump drove anything besides a golf cart.
Biden famously still has his 1967 Corvette which he received from his father as a wedding gift. It is immaculate.
Biden may not be a gearhead but he is a proud owner/driver of one hell of a car. He kept it perfect.
edit: looking at the picture again, is that paint damage on the running board? I wonder if it had sidepipes at one point. I’m sure if it is damage and not a reflection it’s been repaired by now, he loves that car.
Holy fucking shit that Corvette is beautiful.
In two years time from then, the Corvette Stingray comes out and further enhances the absolute gorgeousness that is that car.
Sexiest bootstraps I’ve ever seen.
Part of the agreement presidents sign when they consent to USSS protection is that they are no longer allowed to drive themselves except in pre-approved, controlled situations. Thus, it’s even more concerning he had to ask for permission, since this should have been cleared in the planning stages, long before he got to touch the car, and he should have known that already. Just more evidence that the trump team don’t really know what they’re doing.
In all likelihood it was cleared for him to drive and he knew he was supposed to drive.
He just chickened out when it came time to do it.
Seriously, watch the video if you haven’t, it’s easy to tell.
Please God, let the secret service just let him run to the store himself when he needs milk and cookies…
What’s that old book? “If you give a
mousepresident a cookie?”
I can actually respect trump for thism At least he has the self awareness to realize he’s too dumb/incapable to drive
My parents are old AF, hard of hearing, bad eyesight, and confidently driving every day. I keep telling them to stop driving
smart little bastards!
Going to be a problem if they tell bears…
You say problem, I say solution.
Or at least entertainment.
Quote by a forest ranger at Yosemite National Park on why it is hard to design the perfect garbage bin to keep bears from breaking into it:
“There is considerable overlap between the intelligence of the smartest bears and the dumbest tourists.”
And the smartest cybertruck owners are way worse then the tourists.
Orcas against yachts, raccoons against cybertrucks!
This is sooooo good. This is how you know it’s working. This is how you vote with your dollar. Keep up the anti-consumption. Boycott the fuck out of these assholes. Life is more interesting not giving them a single cent.
Buuut boycotting is illegal… /s
Would be a shame if stuff like this happened in front of the h0use in mlnecraft.
That would be very iIIegal and wrong. Don’t do stuff like that!
Pictures like this hearten me
wink
Corruption on full display. Aren’t you tired, too?
I am even more inspired to boycott!
Were you in a position to buy Tesla such that your boycott matters, or is this just defacto “not buying anyways?” Either way, good.
I’m due for a new vehicle and likely would have just got a model X if Musk wasn’t Musk. So, I’m at least one lost sale. Likely going Rivian.
How are the Rivian, I’ve seen a handful of them around but never looked into them?
First world problems are so hard. Good luck.
