Musk Literally Gave Trump a Script for Desperate ‘Tesla Ad’

“They gave me notes,” Trump said as he participated in a stunt to boost the crisis-hit company of his billionaire buddy.

Summary

Elon Musk gave Donald Trump a scripted sales pitch during a White House event where Trump inspected Teslas.

Photographers captured Trump holding notes with phrases like “SAFEST car” and “affordable.” The stunt followed a 15% drop in Tesla’s stock, linked to backlash over Musk’s involvement in DOGE.

Trump defended Musk on Truth Social, blaming the decline on a “Radical Left” boycott.

Meanwhile, Musk’s other ventures, including X and SpaceX, are struggling with outages and test failures.

    Wait that picture was real? I thought it was a joke.

    Elon’s handwriting is his only good quality.

              I don’t think the Handwriting Championship is probably a good sample of the average British kid’s handwriting, but admittedly those are pretty good.

                  I’m not too proud to admit I was wrong though, I did think you were bullshitting because “America bad” and come to find out English kids do indeed have freakishly good handwriting. I’m sorry for coming at you like that.
