Tesla hasn’t been doing so hot recently, and Donald said he would help his new friend out by buying a car.

Tesla Inc stock at 242.77 USD, down 136.51 (-35.99%) year to date as of Mar 12, 10:41 AM EDT

Sooo, what did he do? He made a grand show of it in front of the White House with Elon Musk.

It appears Donald had a sales pitch to aid with the promotion, and that pitch is going viral.

Let’s just say people are a bit surprised there was a car show at the White House.
