President Donald Trump posed for photos next to a line of Tesla vehicles in front of the White House Tuesday after saying earlier on social media he would buy one as a "show of confidence and support for Elon Musk."

President Donald Trump held a promotional event for Tesla at the White House. Elon Musk accompanied him and the two essentially provided a sales pitch about the automaker. Their efforts led to a slight bump in Tesla stock price after an abysmal few months.

Notes given to President Trump to help him sell Teslas in front of the White House included prices and reminded him to use terms like ‘affordable.’
