Trump Returns to X with Elon Musk Interview

Former President Trump made a significant return to X, the social media platform owned by Tesla founder Elon Musk, on Monday. This marks his most notable presence on the platform since being reinstated in 2023.

Trump and Musk engaged in a two-hour conversation that had a delayed start due to technical issues that initially prevented many users from joining. During the discussion, they covered a wide range of topics, including the recent assassination attempt on Trump, his perspectives on immigration and the economy, and the future of energy production. Musk has publicly endorsed Trump in the 2024 campaign.

Trump Reengages on X

Monday marked a major step in Trump’s return to the social media platform where he originally built much of his political brand and redefined presidential communication.

In addition to the interview with Musk on Spaces, Trump posted multiple times on X in the hours leading up to the conversation, signaling a potential re-engagement with the platform during a critical period for his reelection campaign.

At its peak, Monday’s Spaces session attracted over 1 million listeners.
