President Trump announced plans to buy a Tesla vehicle to support CEO Elon Musk amid Tesla's recent challenges, including a 15% drop in stock value and protests against the company. Trump's statement on social media framed Musk as a key figure in American entrepreneurship. He criticized the boycotts against Tesla, calling them "illegal," despite their protection under the First Amendment. Tesla is facing declining sales, particularly in Europe, with analysts predicting a year-over-year drop of about 25,000 units. Production issues in China are also affecting the company, complicating its recovery efforts.
