President Donald Trump is the latest Tesla

owner to think about getting rid of his car after souring on Elon Musk.

Trump is considering selling, or even giving away, the red Model S Tesla he bought in March, a senior White House official told NBC News, a day after the president’s alliance with Musk dramatically ruptured.

Trump purchased the electric vehicle to show support for Tesla, whose CEO, Musk, had come under fire from some customers and others for his work in the president’s administration on DOGE, a wide-ranging effort to slash government spending and workforce.
