I’m sure he’d be willing to interview Harris. But we know it won’t happen.

I'm not sure why any candidate would accept an interview by Elon Musk. In any case, we'll see if it's an interview or an old atta boy conversation.

Obviously the latter. No way is Elon going to press Trump on any challenging issue.

I predict that this interview will have tougher and more challenging questions than what the liberal mainstream media will get to present to Kamala Harris if she ever agrees to sit down for a LIVE interview or press conference. I am looking forward to watching the interview of Trump by Elon Musk.

Sounds a little naive. A challenging interview by a massive campaign donor?

Musk wont push anything that could conceivably add friction to the Trump campaign effort.

I hope that you are prepared to be surprised.
Meanwhile, how long will Harris and Walz keep on delaying a LIVE press conference or LIVE interviews?

I was a Boy Scout. "Be prepared" was our motto.

We have other threads for that topic.

Musk and Trump probably got together and decided it could help boost his campaign.

The interview transmission was disrupted by a massive DDoS attack. Go figure.

A miracle?

OB

A miracle?

No just sabotage. Do you approve of sabotage?

 

[ozso]

Despite the sabotage it went through of course. I heard it got 50 million views in one hour.

So says Musk.

Would be interesting to know if was true.

I'd be more interested hearing the conspiracy behind Musk faking a DDoS attack that didn't stop 50 million people from listening to the interview.

 

[durangodawood]

I'd be more interested hearing the conspiracy behind Musk faking a DDoS attack that only delayed the interview for half an hour.

Just saying it was a ddos to deflect the embarrassment of a technical failure.

Yeah he didn't want to endure the same shame and ruin as the National Association of Black Journalists did because of the tech failure they had when interviewing Trump. "Dang, why didn't we think of that?" - NABJ

I dont think nabj has any particular tech reputation to defend.

X on the other hand is haunted by the DeSantis campaign launch fiasco that Trump himself called a DISASTER (his caps, of course).

It could be Russia or China providing your miracle but I think it's cancel culture.

1 Billion.
