Elon Musk-Donald Trump Interview Live Updates: Former US President is scheduled to sit for an unscripted interview on X with the platform owner Elon Musk, on Wednesday.
The Republican contender for the White House and X’s owner are slated to have what Musk has termed a “live conversation” at 8 p.m. Taking to X, he said, “This is unscripted with no limits on subject matter, so should be highly entertaining!”
“If you have specific questions & comments, post them under the chat,” he added.
The conversation serves not only as a way for the former president to reach potentially millions of voters directly. It’s also an opportunity for X, a platform that relies heavily on politics, to redeem itself after some struggles.
The tech tycoon and the former president did not agree on many issues even in 2022 but shortly after Musk took over X, formerly Twitter, his stance towards the politician has changed.
He not only lifted the ban on the former president’s Twitter account after purchasing the company but he also appeared to endorse some of the ideas that Trump endorses like – alleged deep state running America, “woke” ideas hurting society, media bias and opposition to immigration.
