Trump Pledges to Buy Tesla as Musk Faces Financial and Political Challenges

President Trump announces plans to purchase a Tesla vehicle to publicly support Elon Musk, whose company is struggling with declining sales and stock performance.

President Donald Trump declared his intention to purchase a Tesla, citing support for Elon Musk, who serves as his senior adviser and is facing political and financial pressures.
Tesla has experienced declining sales and stock value, while Musk juggles multiple roles, including advising Trump on government efficiency and managing his other companies, X and SpaceX.
The White House confirmed that a Tesla vehicle was being delivered for Trump to inspect, with the president committed to paying full market price.
Musk's ventures have encountered additional challenges, including a cyberattack on X and two failed Starship rocket launches, alongside protests and vandalism targeting Tesla facilities.
Trump praised Musk for his contributions to the administration and criticized what he described as a coordinated boycott of Tesla by political opponents.
