This looks like an SNL sketch. People keep expressing sympathy for the onion writers, but really, how does one even parody this? Just shot for shot, word for word something a satirist would come up with.
50 years ago, the president advertising a product probably would have lead to investigations
Now it barely makes the evening news.
Heck, no need to go back 50 years. If Biden did it there'd be backlash. Trump was right about being able to shoot someone and not losing supporters.
I remember they were ready to impeach Obama for wearing a tan suit.
These guys and suits… and of course musk can wear his t-shirt and no one says shit.
Oh, but Vance had a lot to say about Zelenskyy not dressing up in the WH. Buncha dorks. 😂

It did, but he got the VP nom anyway. And he went on to fundamentally reshape the Republican Party over the next twenty five years.
This is basically what killed South Park in 2016. Trump became president and you can't even parody that, because You can't think of anything more absurd. Except maybe electing him for a second time.
Honestly, every time I see an SNL skit recently that mimics one of the latest events I keep saying this is sad because as crazy as they get, I feel like the real event was so much crazier. The skits just make me sad because I'm just being reminded of how fucked we are.
I figure The Onion just has to full on go the opposite direction.
-Trump Returns Funds to Ukraine: Turns Back on Russia.
-Functioning Government Returns to the United States
-Democrats Embrace The Left
Headlines no one could believe and stories about things basically working like they should.

It's not like it's a surprise. Remember how he did a photoshoot with a can of beans, because the owner of the brand said he liked him?
Stopped eating Goya products because of this.
Same. Haven't bought anything Goya since. Once i looked into them it was clear i probably should have stopped long before they endorsed trump but better late than never
our bougie grocery chain stopped carrying this after he did this.
Americans electing a used car dealer to the Presidency is, frankly, the fate we deserved.
He seriously was being a car salesman. A photographer got a shot of his taking points.
Why isn't Elon wearing a suit?
He will wear the costume when his war against democracy is over.
They literally just notified 32% of the Department of Education last night that they were being fired.
Fuck these assholes and anyone who voted for them can fucking drop dead.
i mean, who needs Education anyways? in the future, when machines take all the jobs, there's no point in having an educated workforce. so better cut down on that money that schools are spending today. (/s)

Do these idiots not realize that it's Tesla's association with nazis that's killing sales? How did they think this was going to help, Republicans are suddenly going to start buying electric vehicles?
Yes. That was the goal, the God-King ordering the masses to buy Tesla.

Please let this sink the stock even more.
It definitely won't help. "The most unlikable person on earth being associated with our brand is tanking our stocks, what do we do? I know, well ask the second most unlikable person on earth to help."

It has to be bad if they resort to trying to sell EVs to climate change deniers.
Maybe this is secretly how they save the environment. Coal rollers switching to EVs. And Putin launching the nukes causing a nuclear winter. Global warming solved.
Disgusting. No way for a President to act.
Title of his memoirs.
Yeah! He shoulda stuck to selling beans from the Oval Office, like a respectable con man!

Trump: slaps roof
Tesla: combusts
Tesla sales are tanking because of Elon's embracing fascism and this is the best they could come up with to fix it
Just lean harder into it and hope the guy who hates electric cars can sell electric cars
This gives me major late night car dealer commercial vibes. My English to Trump is terrible however I have faith that someone write Trump doing the narration for this commercial.

I will party a whole week long when he finally dies.... So hurry up Donald.
I really, really, really hope he dies on the toilet. It's such a fitting place. Just, he takes a break from a meeting and doesn't come back. And when they go to look for him, he's slumped to the side. Unable to give anal birth to DJT the Turd. I hope pictures of it leak. I'd get it on a t-shirt.
On the toilet?
In public! Grabs ~~his heart~~ the area where normal humans have a heart, starts staring wildly, sweating profusely, all you hear is a giant wet fart, then his pants stain brown, he stumbles, knocks his head, bites his tongue, collapses.
The end.

There’s no pretending who’s calling the shots anymore. The monkey was asked to perform. He is giving his best performance and everyone is watching the (shit)show.
I remember the last time an EV was parked up outside the white house. That went really well for everyone. /s

Why is musk standing like his feet are afraid of each other? He looks like a proper ninny.

Come on cuntservatives! Buy an EV like your king commands but look like a tree-hugging pussy or don't buy an EV and be a traitor to your king!
Which will it be?
Trump finally caught up with the versions of him in the parallel universes where he wasn't born of a rich family and is now a car salesman. Just like the universe intended.

Billionaires have no idea how the majority of us are living. We shouldn't allow people this disconnected from a normal everyday life to run the country.
The richest man on Earth for now
The cool thing about being a trillionaire is that you can fall a long, long, long way and still be the richest man in the country.
Doubly so if you drag everyone else down with you.
And how do they reconcile this with his administration's pro-destroy-the-environment agenda?

Trump's cybertruck has a chance to do the funniest thing.
selling crappy cars to dumb people is probably the role that suits trump the best.
