Elon Musk is reportedly going to interview former President Donald Trump

On August 8, Donald Trump revealed in his speech that he had an interview scheduled with Elon Musk. The former president claimed that the Tesla CEO had called him and mentioned the show, which is expected to be held on Monday, August 12, 2024. Trump confirmed this on his Truth Social platform, writing:

"On Monday night I'll be doing a major interview with Elon Musk."

The announcement of the interview with Elon Musk came shortly after Trump appeared on a Kick live stream with Adin Ross at his Mar-a-Lago residence.

In separate news, Trump recently made several comments about Kamala Harris. He criticized Harris and Biden for their handling of the problems in the southern part of the country.

During the interview at the National Association of Black Journalists Annual Convention on July 31, Trump said:

"I didn't know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black."

Talking about Trump, it had further been reported that the former President had re-committed to debating Kamala Harris on September 10, 2024, after he backed out once last week. On Thursday, the former president also suggested two additional debate dates.

It is, however, not clear if Kamala Harris' team had agreed to the two extra dates. According to Donald Trump, he had agreed to a September 4 debate hosted by Fox, a September 10 debate hosted by ABC, and a final debate on September 25 hosted by NBC.
