Elon Musk interviews Donald Trump
Billionaire and CEO of Tesla and X, Elon Musk interviewed former US President Donald Trump and opened up about the recent assassination attempt. Trump called the attack a 'harsh blow' and said that it was a surreal situation. During the interview, when the X owner asked, 'How was the shooting for you?' Trump replied, "The shooting was not pleasant and it was a very tough blow. It was a big blow.'
Trump said that when something hit his ear, he knew it was a bullet. Trump further said that when he was shot and fell down, the only question in his mind was 'How many people are dead? Because there was a huge crowd there. So I asked, 'How many people are dead? Because I knew there were more bullets being fired.'
Musk supports Trump amid ongoing controversy
Elon Musk, who previously supported Democratic President Joe Biden, has endorsed Trump, even launching a super PAC to support Trump's campaign. Musk's support has prompted Trump to change his stance. The interview also provided Trump with an opportunity to reach a wider audience beyond his traditional base.
