Donald Trump Appears to Lisp During Elon Musk X Interview | TMZ Live
It was almost cartoon-like, as Trump sounded like he was slurring his words, but it came off like a not-so-subtle lisp.

00:00Hard to say what the biggest takeaway is from Donald Trump's interview with Elon Musk was two hours long
00:06Yes, I kind of expected that it was gonna go long
00:09It's you know, they have no reason to no reason to go short and we know that Donald Trump loves to talk
00:17But a couple of things there was a compliment to Kamala Harris
00:22Which I guarantee she did not receive as a compliment. And in fact, it was sort of an insulting
00:28She's just a pretty face kind of comment and then there was a
00:34lisp
00:35combined with technical glitches now the
00:38Start of the interview was delayed because they were having some issues with X as far as the platform and the amount of traffic
00:45It was getting that audio issues
00:48And then once the interview started a lot of almost everyone who watched this you could hear there was a lisp
00:55Donald Trump had a very it's very apparent very clear from
01:01Listening to the actual feed, right?
01:03So this is a little bit of what people heard when they were listening last night
01:08I see you broke every record in the book with so many millions of people and it's an honor
01:14We view that as an honor and then you do want silencing of certain voices
01:19I believe it's over 20 million people came into our country many coming from jail
01:25From prisons from from mental institutions or a bigger version of that is insane asylums
01:32So it's very pronounced
01:33I mean you clearly hear it and everybody wondered what's going on because he that's not normally the way he speaks and some people were
01:39Thinking maybe it was dental work or something now the plot thickens, right?
01:44Because there are videos that were shot by people sitting in the room
01:49One person from Twitter another person, I'm sorry from X and another person from Donald Trump's team
01:56Just listen to it. The lisp seems to have disappeared
02:00Congratulations because I see you broke every record in the book
02:04With so many millions of people and it's an honor. We view that as an honor
02:09Biden actually did something that was impossible both sides hate him, you know both sides. Yeah, that was a hard thing to do unification
02:16So you don't hear it there I was one there was when he said so many millions
02:20Yeah, you could hear a little bit there. Otherwise, it seemed clean
02:24Yeah
02:24It seemed different so and and I I admit I can't say this firsthand because I haven't listened to other
02:30Twitter or X spaces in the past
02:32but there are people online who are
02:34Saying that they have listened to a lot of these other spaces before other people not involving Donald Trump and they say that a lot
02:39Of times it has something to do with compression is what they're saying it that it distorts the audio
02:44and it often does sound like the speaker does have a lisp and
02:48That's the the speculation that that happened to Donald Trump last night
02:52It's a thing is what I mean, first of all, that's a bad look for Elon Musk and his product
02:57Right, right, and I would think that he would come out and say something
03:02Well, Elon's not gonna see Elon's not gonna come out and say that as a liar
03:06Yeah, but he's also not gonna come out and say that he has to try to go you say nothing
03:09So you say nothing I want to say something that I gotta say I was thinking of this last night that this is a
03:17Presidential election. It's important. Everyone is we are talking about
03:24Military records we're talking about crowd sizes
03:27We're talking about lisps and when you look at everybody covering this election right now
03:33There's no substance being covered so Elon Musk has and he said it last night
03:38I heard him as I was listening and he said that I've made you know
03:41I've made the same offer to Kamala Harris. Do you think that she should take him up and she can go out there?
03:46she hasn't really done any interviews that she can get out there in front of
03:49Tens of millions if not hundreds of millions of people and really discuss her position on a lot of these issues
03:54And I I think that's what the voters are very curious about right now
03:57You know, what is Kamala Harris's platform?
03:59And I mean what better place than on X in front of again, maybe hundreds of millions of people, but it's fair to ask
04:05Yeah
04:06State your positions and have a news conference on the other side
04:10You've got Trump's allies saying would you just talk about issues and stop?
04:16Trashing the other side so it's going on everywhere right now, and it's just it's very frustrating
04:22Hi, my name is Alan Massenburg, and I'm from Philadelphia PA and I gotta agree
04:28I don't know if this is the right space for presidential conversations because there's lists going on that may not be real
04:34You know at first when I heard it
04:36I thought maybe Trump just had low blood sugar and he was it was slurring that way, you know
04:40So I'm not sure what to believe but yeah
04:42I was like it to be more traditional and not being on X and platforms like that in space
04:47Oh, there's there's gonna be a debate at that point
04:50They can't run from neither side can run from the issues to be continued, right?
04:55I mean, isn't that what has to happen in the debate one would think
