Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) and SpaceX, has announced an unscripted live conversation with former President Donald Trump on his social media platform, X.
What Happened: Musk took to his social media platform, X, to confirm the live conversation with Trump, scheduled for 8 p.m. ET on Monday. Musk also invited his followers to post their questions and comments under the chat.
“This is unscripted with no limits on subject matter, so should be highly entertaining!” Musk added. He invited users to post their questions and comments under the chat.
He also mentioned in another post that he would be conducting system scaling tests ahead of the conversation.
Trump's account on Twitter (now X) was permanently suspended after the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol Hill attack. Under Musk's ownership, the account was later reinstated. Since then, Trump has created his own platform, Truth Social, and didn't post on Twitter until Aug. 25, 2023.
How To Watch

Why It Matters: The upcoming conversation between Musk and Trump comes at a pivotal moment as the 2024 presidential election approaches.
The two influential figures have had a history of disagreements, particularly on issues like climate change and electric vehicles. However, their recent collaboration has sparked speculation about their motives and potential impact on the future of the EV industry and beyond.
Trump has been actively engaging with social media influencers to appeal to younger voters ahead of the election. His recent interviews with YouTubers like Logan Paul and Adin Ross highlight this strategy. The upcoming live chat with Musk on X is expected to draw significant attention.
Additionally, Musk has clarified that his endorsement of Trump does not mean he agrees with everything the former president says. In a conversation with Lex Fridman, Musk emphasized that his support is based on Trump’s leadership qualities rather than complete alignment with his views.
