Trump Says He’ll Be Doing a “Major” Interview with Unlikely Ally Elon Musk on Monday

Share

Donald Trump says on his social media that he’s getting ready for a big interview.

The interview won’t be with a journalist. It will be with a mega donor and unlikely ally, carmaker Elon Musk.

The interview will probably be on the Twitter X platform. Musk promotes right wing theories and philosophies on the money losing system. He also sponsors Tucker Carlson’s conspiracy theories among other bizarre personalities. But he’s being sued by former CNN journalist Don Lemon for reneging on their deal to host Lemon’s show on Twitter X.

Musk is a strange political bedfellow for Trump. Musk’s fortune comes from the manufacture of electric cars. Trump rails against electric cars, pushing for their demise so that gas and oil companies can prevail.

Well, on Monday they’ll break the internet, I’m sure.
