Elon Musk To Interview Trump on X Amid Struggles in White House Campaign

Donald Trump is set to be interviewed live on X by its billionaire owner Elon Musk on Monday, as the former president seeks to reignite online enthusiasm for his faltering White House campaign.

Musk, a significant supporter of Trump and a prominent voice in U.S. politics, announced the unscripted interview on Sunday, promising it would be “highly entertaining.”

Trump, 78, posted on X for the first time in over a year ahead of the interview, sharing a campaign video portraying himself as a victim of persecution by those attempting to “destroy” the United States.

Musk, a fierce critic of President Joe Biden, has gained popularity among young men aligned with Trump’s views, and the conversation is expected to reflect their shared perspectives.

The former president’s efforts to revive his campaign include recent outreach to online audiences, such as hosting controversial internet influencer Adin Ross at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. This interview marks a continued effort to engage with voters who may not follow traditional media outlets or attend rallies.
