Trump boosts electric vehicle he once derided
Original: Electric boomerang: Trump boosts his least fave car
Donald Trump has publicly promoted an electric vehicle despite having criticized electric cars in the past, a reversal commentators are calling an 'electric boomerang.' The endorsement comes as he and Republicans have otherwise campaigned against EV mandates and subsidies. Observers are weighing in on the apparent contradiction and what it means for his stance on the auto industry and climate policy.
Why now: Trump's endorsement contradicts his long-standing criticism of electric vehicles, making the reversal notable.
