Elon Musk responded to The Daily Show after it released a tongue-in-cheek “White House Tesla auto mall” advert following President Donald Trump’s purchase of a $80,000 Model S on Tuesday.
Despite being on a one-week hiatus, the late-night show took to Musk’s X platform on Wednesday evening to ridicule the event on the White House south lawn which appeared to be part press conference, part car promotion. The back-and-forth comes as questions remain if Musk will accept host Jon Stewart’s invitation to be interviewed on the long-running late-night show.
