Tesla Faces Global Boycott as Trump Promotes Brand at White House
President Trump publicly endorses Tesla in response to declining sales, while global consumer backlash against Elon Musk's policies grows.
- President Donald Trump hosted Elon Musk at the White House, endorsing Tesla by posing with a Model S and encouraging Americans to support the brand.
- Tesla's sales have dropped significantly, with U.S. sales down 7% in 2024 and European sales plummeting, contributing to a 47% decline in the company's stock value since December.
- Global boycotts against Tesla and other U.S. brands are escalating, particularly in Europe and Canada, driven by opposition to Trump's policies and Musk's alignment with the administration.
- Critics of Musk cite his reinstatement of far-right figures on his social platform X and his controversial role in Trump's administration, including cuts to federal programs and services.
- Supporters of Tesla argue that the company's contributions to the electric vehicle revolution and sustainability outweigh the political controversies surrounding Musk.
