In a recent interview with billionaire Elon Musk, former President Donald Trump discussed a variety of topics, from last month's assassination attempt to his views on immigration. The conversation, which was delayed by nearly 45 minutes due to technical issues, was largely dominated by Trump's views, with Musk playing a more passive role.
Musk began the conversation by suggesting that the technical glitches were the result of a cyberattack intended to prevent Trump from being eavesdropped, though concrete evidence of such an attack has not been provided. The discussion then moved to Trump's recent assassination attempt, with Musk praising Trump's response to the incident as “incredibly inspiring.”
The conversation also touched on immigration, with Musk and Trump expressing concern about the increase in unauthorized immigration in recent years. Trump promised the “largest deportation in the history of this country” if re-elected, a claim that has been widely criticized.
Trump also shared his plans to close the Department of Education if elected, affirming his belief that education should be run at the state level. He expressed confidence that at least 35 of the 50 states excel in this scenario.
Musk, who has expressed a desire to serve on a “government efficiency commission,” was backed by Trump, who said he would “love” Musk to have a role on such a commission.
The interview came amid a difficult period for the Trump campaign, with Vice President Kamala Harris entering the race and falling poll numbers. Trump, who returned to social media for the first time in more than a year just hours before the interview, used the platform to criticize Harris and promote his interview with Musk.
This interview is considered part of a growing alliance between Musk and Trump, with Musk endorsing Trump and leading a pro-Trump super PAC. Despite technical issues and delays, the interview attracted a large audience, with 765,000 users tuning in.
