Former US President Donald Trump made a surprising return to the social media platform X in a two-hour-long interview with billionaire businessman Elon Musk. The conversation covered a range of topics including immigration, foreign policy, and US energy policy.
The two had a contentious relationship in the past, with Musk publicly expressing his desire for Trump to step down as president. However, Musk has since endorsed Trump, leading to speculation about the impact of their conversation on the upcoming US presidential election.
Trump is currently facing pressure to stay ahead of Democratic candidate Kamala Harris in the race to the White House, while Musk is navigating business challenges of his own. The interview on X has sparked discussions about how their views and endorsements could influence voters in the upcoming election.
Media journalist Brian Stelter, Voice of America’s chief national correspondent Steve Herman, and Democratic political strategist Arshad Hasan weighed in on the potential impact of Trump and Musk’s conversation on the election. With both men holding influence in different spheres, their endorsement could sway voters and shape the outcome of the upcoming election.
