Elon Musk and Donald Trump engaged in a two-hour conversation on X, discussing topics such as national security, immigration, and energy policy. The conversation, held on X's Spaces platform, was plagued by technical issues. Trump falsely claimed that "over 20 million people" entered the U.S. having escaped from prisons, mental institutions, or insane asylums. Musk and Trump shared a mostly aligned vision for the country, suggesting a potential advisory role in a future Trump administration. The Harris campaign described the interview as "self-obsessed rich guys" who "cannot run a livestream in the year 2024."
