Starting 42 minutes late due to technical issues, Donald Trump’s interview with Elon Musk on X drew over 1 million listeners, far below the 8 million Musk anticipated. Trump discussed an assassination attempt, criticized Democrats and Vice President Kamala Harris, and claimed domestic “enemies” were more dangerous than foreign ones. He also touched on inflation, U.S. trade deficits, and criticized U.S. support for Ukraine.
Musk’s support for Trump has fluctuated, though they share views on COVID-19 restrictions.
