Despite his recent tirade against electric vehicles, Donald Trump And Elon Musk still seem to be on friendly terms, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
The Republican presidential candidate took to his Truth Social platform and wrote: “ON MONDAY NIGHT I’M DOING A BIG INTERVIEW WITH ELON MUSK – Details TBA!”
No further information was posted, but comments on X indicated that users had mixed opinions about the sit-down. One person said the interview had “the potential to break the internet,” while others vowed to listen in.
However, a separate user said: “I really hope he spends some time with Elon off camera to learn more about EVs.”
The tweet was a reference to Trump’s rally in Atlanta on Saturday, in which he stated:[Vice President Kamala Harris] wants to get rid of gas-powered cars and replace them with fully electric cars. They don’t go far, they cost too much, they’re all made in China; other than that they are fantastic, and i’m all for electric cars. It has to be, you know, because Elon was very supportive of me, Elon. So I have no choice.”
Musk, who also runs Tesla And SpaceXpublicly shared messages of support for Trump after the assassination attempt about Trump’s life during his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13.
The billionaire businessman posted the photo of a bloodied Trump pumping his fist and wrote: “I fully support President Trump and hope for his speedy recovery.”
Musk also stated that he would give $45 million a month to the America PAC that supports Trump, but on July 23 he clarified: “I make some donations to America PAC, but at a much lower level and the core values of the PAC his support of a meritocracy and individual freedom. Republicans are largely, but not entirely, on the side of merit and freedom.”
The unexpected move was announced on social media on Friday, August 2, with Trump stating: “I have arranged with Fox News to debate Kamala Harris on Wednesday, September 4.”
