    The shilling never stops. He’s turned the White House into a fucking car dealership.

    And he was probably dumb enough to buy the undercoat and extended warranty.

    I’m so very confused by all of this, there is no venn diagram overlap between people that eat up MAGA shit and EVs at all.

      Most presidents avoid promoting or endorsing products because executive branch employees are prohibited from doing so on behalf of friends and relatives. In Mr. Trump’s first term, one of his advisers, Kellyanne Conway, was reprimanded for violating those rules when she urged people to buy Ivanka Trump’s fashion products.

      But those rules do not apply to the president.
