A Presidential Purchase That Has Everyone Talking
In a move that no one saw coming, former President Donald Trump just made a bold and unexpected purchase—a brand-new red Tesla Model S Plaid for a cool $90,000. But what really caught everyone’s attention wasn’t just the car—it was Tesla CEO Elon Musk himself who personally delivered it right to the White House driveway.
With cameras flashing and reporters scrambling to capture the moment, the two business moguls shook hands, shared a few laughs, and sealed the deal, making it one of the most talked-about car purchases of the year.
Trump’s Take: “It’s A Beautiful, Perfect Car”
Dressed in his signature suit and red tie, Trump wasted no time praising his newest ride.
“This is a beautiful car, a perfect car—one of the best. Maybe the best,” he said, standing next to the shiny red Tesla. “It’s fast, it’s powerful, and most importantly—it’s American-made. We love that, don’t we?”
Known for his love of big, powerful gas-guzzlers, Trump’s decision to go electric has raised some eyebrows. When asked why he chose a Tesla, he responded, “If you’re gonna go electric, you go with the best. And Tesla is winning—big league.”
Elon Musk Arrives In A Cybertruck—And A Deal Is Made
Elon Musk, ever the showman, pulled up to the White House driveway in a sleek, stainless steel Cybertruck before stepping out to greet Trump. The two men, both known for their
larger-than-life personalities, exchanged a firm handshake before Musk handed over the keys.
“Donald made a great choice,” Musk said with a grin. “The Model S Plaid is the fastest production car in the world. I told him, ‘This is the best Tesla we’ve ever made,’ and he said, ‘I know. That’s why I’m getting it.’”
The Model S Plaid is no ordinary car—it boasts 1,020 horsepower, goes 0 to 60 mph in under two seconds, and is packed with cutting-edge technology.
Musk even threw in a joke about his rockets, saying, “If you ever want to go even faster, we’ve got something for you at SpaceX.”
Trump’s Changing Views On Evs?
Trump has long been vocal about his love for American industries, but he’s also been skeptical about electric vehicles. His Tesla purchase has sparked speculation—does this signal a shift in his views?
“I support American businesses,” Trump clarified. “Tesla is a winner. And let me tell you something—this isn’t just any electric car. This is power. And power is important.”
Did Trump Get A “Presidential Discount”?
The Tesla Model S Plaid typically starts at $90,000, but many are wondering—did Musk give Trump a special deal?
When reporters pressed for details, Musk laughed and said, “He’s a great negotiator. Let’s just say he got a presidential discount.”
Trump, never one to miss a business opportunity, added, “It was a tremendous deal. Maybe the best deal Musk has ever made. He should be thanking me!”
Social Media Goes Wild
As expected, social media exploded the moment the news broke.
- Trump supporters celebrated the move, calling it a strong endorsement of American innovation.
Critics couldn’t help but point out the irony, given Trump’s past skepticism of EVs.
Memes flooded Twitter, with some calling the Tesla the “MAGA Mobile” and others
photoshopping Trump behind the wheel with the caption: “Make Tesla Great Again.”
A Cybertruck Next?
Before Musk drove off, reporters asked Trump if he’d consider buying a Cybertruck next.
With a smirk, Trump replied, “Well, we’ll see. I like trucks. Big, strong trucks. Maybe I’ll get one, maybe two. We’ll talk.”
Musk, never missing a chance to close a deal, quickly shot back, “I’ll have a gold-plated one ready for you.”
Final Thoughts
Trump’s high-profile Tesla purchase has everyone talking. Whether it marks a real shift in his stance on electric cars or just another flashy moment, one thing is clear: Trump and Musk know how to make headlines.
