Elon Musk to Interview Donald Trump

Online Talk Marks First Public Interaction Since Trump X Launch

Interview set to air on X at 8 p.m. EST

Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk will interview Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on X, the social media platform owned by Musk. The interview will be the first public interaction between the two men since Trump launched X.

The interview will be hosted live using Trump's official X account, his campaign said on Sunday. It is set to air at 8 p.m. EST on Monday, August 14th.

Trump said on Tuesday that he would be interviewed next week by Musk, who recently acquired Twitter. The former president has been using X to communicate with his supporters since being banned from Twitter and Facebook following the January 6th Capitol riot.

The interview is likely to cover a wide range of topics, including Trump's presidential campaign, his use of X, and his thoughts on the current state of the country.
