Elon Musk conducted a friendly interview with his endorsed 2024 presidential candidate, Donald Trump, on his social media platform X. The broadcast was delayed by technical issues, but eventually began with Trump discussing topics like illegal border crossings and his recent assassination attempt. Musk allowed Trump to attack his Democratic opponents without pushback and did not discuss fundraising during the two-hour conversation. Trump supporters were pleased with the interview, while critics highlighted the technical issues as a sign of incompetence. The Trump campaign had hoped to use the interview to raise money, but faced criticism for the perceived lack of substance in the conversation. Despite the delays and technical problems, the interview was seen as a success by Trump’s team and supporters.
