Tesla sales plummet in Europe as protests increase
Tesla's sales in Europe have dropped significantly, and share prices have fallen sharply amid recession fears and controversy surrounding CEO Elon Musk. Protests against Musk's cost-cutting measures at the Department of Government Efficiency have increased. In response, President Donald Trump announced he will buy a new Tesla to support Musk. Trump praised Musk's efforts and criticized those protesting against him, claiming they are trying to harm Tesla. Despite Trump's backing, Musk remains unpopular among many Americans. Tesla's market value has decreased by over one-third since December, partly due to Musk's political associations and controversial actions.
