I wonder what those softball questions were? Maybe about his summer playlist? Favorite shirts? What questions has Kamala answered?
Musk Tees Up Softball Questions for Trump on X, After Technical Problems
What was supposed to be Donald J. Trump’s triumphant return to a social-media platform central to his presidency was marred by glitches on Monday night, when a livestreamed conversation on X between Mr. Trump and its owner, Elon Musk, was significantly delayed by technical issues.
But once their chat began, 40 minutes after it was scheduled, Mr. Musk’s and Mr. Trump’s newly developed camaraderie was on clear display, with the billionaire tech entrepreneur lobbing softball questions that allowed Mr. Trump to rattle off the talking points that have animated his presidential campaign.
The conversation offered little new information about Mr. Trump’s views. Over the course of more than two hours, Mr. Trump attacked Vice President Kamala Harris, his Democratic opponent, as a “phony” who, along with President Biden, failed to address crossings at the U.S. border with Mexico. He repeated a number of false claims, including that the 2020 election was rigged, the criminal cases against him were a conspiracy by the Biden administration to undermine his candidacy and the leaders of other nations were deliberately sending criminals and “their nonproductive people” to America.
And then the Times wonders why the media is hated and distrusted, why they are called biased and activists for the Democratic Party. This article is in their politics section, yet it reads more like an opinion piece or Harris press release. They fail to delve into what the questions were, and Trump’s full answers. Even CNN had more
Trump and Musk began their discussion with the former president retelling in detail how he had survived the assassination attempt at his Butler, Pennsylvania, rally on July 13. Trump discussed how the shooter had been spotted by local police and rally attendees, and he praised the Secret Service for their reaction to the shooting.
Their conversation covered a broad array of topics — including lengthy portions on energy policy, climate change and the threat of nuclear warfare; immigration, with Trump promising the “largest deportation in the history of this country”; federal government spending, with Musk proposing a commission to look for ways to make cuts; and more.
Trump talked issues. What has Harris talked about? Who has she done an interview with?
It’s a miracle that the NYT and CNN are still in business.
Both have business models based on P.T. Barnum’s attributed observation about suckers being born every minute.

Big Donnie told his normal collection of lies and exaggerations. Nothing new. Plus he was lisping and slurring, but some blame that on Musk’s “Spaces” infrastructure.
Trump reprised his oldies, “The election was stolen! Crowd sizes are faked by AI! Foreign countries are emptying their prisons and insane asylums across our border with Mexico! etc”
Elon tried to steer him to actual issues and succeeded in part.
At least he showed up.
Where’s Kumala?
Just because you didn’t fucking listen the first time doesn’t make them any less true.
All of Old Don’s oldies are false. Did you miss that part?j
Have you seen his face without his bronze spackle? He looks worse than Biden.
Just think if Old Don drops out. The election would be between two women! Vice President Harris and that tall homely blond, Mrs Vance!!
Big Donnie loves him some dictators!! Role models!!
The Harris campaign said, “Trump’s entire campaign is in service of people like Elon Musk and himself — self-obsessed rich guys who will sell out the middle class and who cannot even run a livestream in the year 2024.” and
“Donald Trump’s extremism and dangerous Project 2025 agenda is a feature not a glitch of his campaign, which was on full display for those unlucky enough to listen in tonight during whatever that was on X.com.”
Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung called the Harris campaign “fucking cowards.”
At least he showed up.
Where’s Kumala?
Well bless her heart.
Oh, Kumala actually answered a question.
“Trump’s campaign in service to people like Musk”. Sorta like most of the MSM is in service the Democratic Party? I thought so.
“Rich guys who will sell out the middle class..” Really? How? For starters, a no tax on tips proposal is anything but something for the rich.
Have you seen what Musk makes in tips? This is obviously Trump’s gift to other Billionaires.
Elwood, like all leftists lies again. Trump has/had nothing to do with Project 2025. The Heritage Foundation wrote the plan but we can see where you would believe the lie that it’s Trumps plan: If you Google it the FIRST position is an anti Trump/Anti 2025 propaganda spiel by the kamalaharris.com. Now go figure!!!! The commies are already taking over the net in preparation to steal another election.
It’s an interesting plan but as usual the radical left can’t find one single thing there to agree on. Not one. That’s how open minded and democratic they are.
I love this silly shit: “self-obsessed rich guys who will sell out the middle class and who cannot even run a livestream in the year 2024.” One of those self obsessed rich guys took no salary the entirety of his government gig and the other basically made the EV a reality, explores space and is willing to send his own ships to rescue people stranded in the ISS.
It amuses me how the radical left surrounds themselves with millionaires and billionaires who actually are self obsessed and then AS USUAL project that on us. We don’t hold a dozen “award shows” to parade our rich pigs around, they do. They had awards out to each other for farting like Obama getting the Nobel peace prize for NOTHING while Trump who recognized Jerusalem as the capitol of Israel and negotiated the Abraham Accords was ignored because he’s not a stuck-up commie. The pigs on the left need culling. It’s time for a civil war again. Funny how the Democrats are always the enemy.
