Biden also offered electric cars at the White House, when he drove a Jeep Wrangler in 2021

Democrats have passed on the president Donald Trump The purchase of Tesla Red on Tuesday – although former President Joe Biden was similarly offered Jeep Wrangler at the White House in 2021.

Trump boasted about the car in the South White House park with Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, who is also heading to the newly created government efficiency (DOGE), where Tesla shares stumbled earlier in the week. The stock price rose after the White House event.

Democrats denounced this step, and the Democratic Congress Campaign Committee described the Trump administration as “the most corrupt administration in American history.”

But Biden also had a similar event in the White House in August 2021, when he drove the Jeep Wrangler Electric Electric Car in The White House South Lawn as part of a meeting with senior executives of General Motors, Ford and Tillantes.

This event corresponds to Biden’s signature on an executive order aimed at zero -manufactured emissions in the United States to form half of its cars production by the end of the contract.

Musk and Tesla were not invited to the Biden’s 2021 Electic Oper event. Musk summoned the Biden administration in a post on X at the time, saying: “Yes, it seems strange that Tesla has not been invited.”

When asked at the time about the exclusion of the White House Tesla, the largest electric car manufacturer in the United States, the White House press secretary Jen Psaki suggested that Tesla would receive an invitation to future events.

“Well, we of course welcome the efforts of the car manufacturers who realize the capabilities of the future of the electric car and support efforts that will help in reaching the goal of the president, and definitely Tesla is one of those companies,” Psaki said in August 2021.. “I do not expect this to be the last time we talk about clean cars and move towards electric cars, and we look forward to having a group of partners in this effort.”

Meanwhile, the Biden administration’s refusal to meet Musk is a catalyst for the departure of Musk from the Democratic Party, according to the Wall Street Journal. The magazine stated in July 2024 that Musk had voted for Biden in 2020 and contacted the White House after its inauguration, but the White House refused to talk to him.

The magazine stated that the White House of Biden has been hesitant to take musk on the show due to fears that relations with it will disturb the United Auto Labor Union (UAW), because Tesla is the only automotive company in the United States in the United States in the United States

Psaki said that for the optional vehicle event, it has chosen “the three largest employers in United Auto workers, so I will allow you to extract your own conclusions.”

Others criticized Trump for showing on Tuesday Tesla. “I am sure that all the people who lose their retirement, jobs and health care because of Trump is pleased to see that the White House is turning into a auto agency for the richest man on this planet,” said Ken Martin, Chairman of the Democratic Committee of the Democratic Committee at one of the X employees.
