President Donald Trump made headlines Tuesday after a White House event where he voiced his support for Tesla and its CEO, Elon Musk. A photo from the event caught attention when it showed Trump holding a list of Tesla vehicle prices while standing next to a lineup of the company’s electric cars on the South Lawn.

Ahead of the gathering, Trump took to Truth Social to announce his interest in purchasing one of Musk’s vehicles as a gesture of support. While speaking to the media, he admired a sleek red Model S parked nearby.

“That’s a beauty,” Trump remarked before suggesting he would write a check for the car, which retails for around $80,000.
