Trump and Musk speak to reporters in front of a red Model S Tesla vehicle on the South Lawn of the White House. — APPresident Donald Trump shopped for a new Tesla on the White House driveway on Tuesday, selecting a shiny red sedan to show his support for Elon Musk 's electric vehicle company as it faces blowback because of his work to advance the president's political agenda and downsize the federal government.

Musk continues to run Tesla – as well as the social media platform X and the rocket manufacturer SpaceX – while also serving as Trump's adviser. Others have also rallied to Musk's defence. Alex Jones, a prominent conspiracy theorist, said that he bought a customised version of a Cybertruck that he'll give away to a customer of his online store next month.

But regardless of the practicality of Trump's purchase, his overnight announcement about buying a Tesla represented another step in how the president has blurred lines between private and public interests. However, it's rare to see Trump use his own money to support an ally, no matter how important they are.

Tesla has recently faced protests and vandalism. Police are investigating gunshots fired at a dealership in Oregon, and fire officials are examining a blaze that destroyed four Cybertrucks at a Tesla lot in Seattle.
