Former President Donald Trump is making a highly anticipated return to the public eye with an upcoming live conversation on the social media platform X. And who better to interview him than the platform's owner himself, Elon Musk?
Trump took to X on Monday afternoon to share a flyer promoting the event, which is set to take place later that evening. The flyer featured images of Trump and Musk, with the caption "ENJOY!" written by Trump. He also reposted his campaign's statement declaring the interview as "the interview of the century," accompanied by the hashtag #TrumpOnX.
This announcement marks Trump's first post on X since August of 2023, when he shared his mugshot in relation to his Georgia election interference case. It's also his first post on the platform, formerly known as Twitter, since the days following the January 6 Capitol riot.
Not to be outdone, Musk also made an announcement about the upcoming conversation on Sunday evening. He shared that the interview, set to begin at 8pm ET, will be unscripted and cover a wide range of topics. He even encouraged followers to post their own questions and comments in the chat.
Many are eagerly anticipating this event, as it will be a chance to hear from Trump directly on his views and opinions since leaving office. And with Musk as the interviewer, it's sure to be quite the entertaining and thought-provoking conversation.
But this is not the first time Musk has hosted a presidential candidate on X. In May of 2023, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced his 2024 campaign on Twitter Spaces, with Musk as the host. However, technical issues and a poor showing in the polls led to DeSantis dropping out of the race.
It seems that Trump is not limiting himself to traditional media outlets for interviews, as he recently had a 90-minute conversation with 23-year-old live streamer Adin Ross. This unconventional interview, which included gifts of a Tesla Cybertruck and a Rolex watch, was seen as a way to appeal to a younger demographic of voters.
With the November election approaching, it will be interesting to see what insights and perspectives Trump will share in his conversation with Musk. This highly anticipated event is sure to reach a wide audience and spark important discussions. So mark your calendars for 8pm ET on X, and get ready for a night of unscripted and entertaining dialogue.
