The Trump administration has been promoting its close relationship with DOGE head and billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, now touting another one of its endeavors— Tesla. Last week, the White House briefly became a Tesla showroom, with President Donald Trump promoting the cars. Now, U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is joining the initiative, persuading voters to buy from the brand as its stock plummets and detractors target company assets.
Lutnick appeared on Fox News's "Jesse Watters Primetime" on Wednesday and was asked about the recent attacks from protesters in several states that have targeted Tesla dealerships, showrooms, charging stations and vehicles.
