The X owner has promised a “highly entertaining” conversation with the former US president

Former US President Donald Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk sat down for a free-flowing interview on Musk’s X platform on Monday. Three months out from the US presidential election, Trump’s campaign billed the talk as the “interview of the century.”

The “live conversation” with Trump will be “unscripted with no limits on subject matter,” Musk wrote on Sunday, adding it “should be highly entertaining” and encouraging users to post questions and comments.

Hours before the interview, Trump returned to X and posted a flurry of videos promoting his own campaign and attacking US vice president and Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. Trump was banned from X (then known as Twitter) in 2021 by the platform’s previous management, and since his reinstatement by Musk in 2022, had only shared a single post – a photo of his mugshot following his arrest in Georgia last year.

The interview has generated significant attention, particularly from opponents of Trump and Musk. In a letter to Musk earlier on Monday, EU Commissioner Thierry Breton warned that X could be investigated and fined if so-called “harmful content” is spread on the platform during the live-streamed conversation.
