Donald Trump’s highly anticipated interview with Elon Musk on X (formerly Twitter) encountered significant technical problems even before it began, leading Musk to limit the broadcast to a smaller audience as many users were unable to tune in.
This interview, dubbed by the Trump campaign as the “interview of the century,” was seen as a crucial opportunity for Trump to regain the spotlight. His Democratic rival, Vice President Kamala Harris, has recently erased his lead in the polls and energized Democratic voters with a series of dynamic rallies.
Musk, who previewed the event as “unscripted with no limits on subject matter, so should be highly entertaining,” has a net worth of approximately $235 billion. The interview was expected to draw significant attention, especially with Trump recently reactivating his @realDonaldTrump account after it was reinstated by Musk a month into his ownership of X. The account had been suspended following the January 6, 2021, attack on Congress by Trump supporters.
Though Trump primarily uses his Truth Social platform, which launched in February 2022, he posted on X for the first time in over a year on Monday, sharing a campaign video where he portrayed himself as a victim of persecution by those seeking to “destroy” the United States.
Musk, a vocal critic of the Democrats, endorsed Trump last month, just minutes after the former president narrowly survived an assassination attempt at a rally. Despite the technical difficulties, the interview remains a significant moment in Trump’s campaign as he seeks to regain momentum ahead of the 2024 election.
