On August 12th, Trump, an American Republican and former president, had an open dialogue with elon musk, an American entrepreneur, on social media X (former Twitter). This live broadcast attracted more than 1.1 million listeners’ attention.
A few hours before the interview, Trump wrote in a tweet, “Is your life better now than when I was president?” This is the first time Trump has used social media platform X since August 2023.
As the boss of X, Musk has publicly stated that he will support Trump in the November presidential election and promised to help him run for the 2024 US president.
Through this dialogue, the two sides showed their close relationship to everyone.

Looking back on the whole process of Space, in fact, their dialogue was not smooth sailing, but this high-profile dialogue encountered technical challenges when it was about to kick off. Many users reported that they encountered access obstacles when trying to access the live content on Musk’s social media platform X. This scene can’t help but remind people of the technical problems encountered when Ron Desanti’s campaign was launched last year. For a time, social media was full of discussions about “Musk Trump X Spaces access”, and users expressed their dissatisfaction and disappointment with technical failures.
To this end, Musk issued a document saying that “X seems to have suffered a large-scale DDOS attack”, referring to distributed denial of service network attacks, which are likely to come from Trump’s opponents, who want to stop this conversation.
Musk added that in the worst case, they would have to reduce the size of the live audience and promised to release the dialogue at a later time.
Musk’s remarks not only responded to the outside world’s doubts, but also confidently revealed that the platform had successfully withstood the stress test of “8 million simultaneous online listeners” earlier, showing his full trust in the technical team and high confidence in the stability of the platform.
Of course, no matter where the attack comes from, it is just an episode for the whole Space. The whole Space is surrounded by Trump’s assassination, illegal immigration, Biden’s withdrawal from the election, Harris’s refusal to give an interview, wanting to cancel the Ministry of Education, attacking the governor of California, and electric vehicle policy.
Here is a detailed record of the whole meeting:
Trump: Congratulations to Musk and mention the assassination
Trump first congratulated Musk for “breaking all records”. When Musk asked Trump about the assassination, Trump expressed high respect and appreciation to the Secret Service sharpshooter who bravely killed the murderer who tried to assassinate him. Trump praised him for having “extraordinary keen observation and excellent vision.”
Trump: I hope that the interview will help gain greater political power
Trump hopes that this interview will help him gain more motivation after President Biden withdraws and Vice President Kamala Harris reinvigorates the Democratic Party. Trump also said that he may never talk about assassination attempts again-but this is the only issue he has discussed in depth so far.
Harris campaign: The two worst people you know are live
By the way, while Trump was having a deep dialogue with Musk, Kamala Harris’ campaign team adopted a completely different strategy, launched an appeal for donations to supporters through an email, and said sharply: “Tonight, you will witness the appearance of two most controversial figures you know on the same stage.” In the email, the campaign team also slammed Musk, accusing him of being a “loyal fan of the MAGA team (making America great again)” and colluding with Trump.
Trump said Harris’ position on the border was not firm
Trump accused Harris of denying her once firm position on the border issue and said that she had a tough position on the border issue. Harris, on the other hand, is trying to evade her responsibility. She should resolutely close the border to safeguard national security, as I did before. “
Trump said Harris copied his tax policy
Trump accused Harris of “copying” his “tip tax exemption” policy and told Musk: “This policy was proposed by me a few months ago, and now she wants to keep it for herself.” This remark once again triggered widespread concern and heated discussion in public opinion.
Musk and Trump have differences on illegal immigration
Musk emphasized that most illegal immigrants are actually “people who are kind-hearted and diligent.” He further added: “This is my personal opinion. Of course, there are many exceptions, which leads to adverse selection to some extent.”
Trump has a very different view on this. The Republican presidential candidate claimed that immigrants came from “mental hospitals” all over the world without providing evidence.
“Millions of people poured in within a month, and she stood up and pretended to do something,” he said, referring to Kamara Harris. He claimed that there are 20 million illegal immigrants in the United States, even suggesting that there are terrorists mixed in them. This remark immediately pushed the atmosphere to a tense climax.
Trump said Biden was forced to step down by a coup
Trump questioned the legitimacy of Biden’s government. He hinted that Biden was forced to withdraw from the presidential election and accused it of being a “coup” against the US president. He said indignantly: “Biden didn’t want to leave, but they told him,’ Leave with dignity or face a more difficult situation.’ At the same time, he once again expressed strong doubts about Harris’s ability, saying that she was as incompetent as Biden.
Trump spoke highly of Putin and warned the internal risks of the US government
Trump expressed his high appreciation for Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un, saying that they are “outstanding in their respective fields, defending the interests and security of the country with their toughness, wisdom and determination.” When talking about Putin, Trump is even more blunt: “Ukraine is as important as a treasure to Putin. I have privately advised him that he can act cautiously. “
Trump further revealed a thought-provoking point: “There are some threatening’ bad guys’ within our government, and they may be more dangerous than Russia.” This remark has undoubtedly cast a shocking bomb on the current political environment.
Trump says Ukrainian men are not enough
In response to the situation in Ukraine, Trump’s words are equally sharp and full of worries: “The cruelty on the battlefield in Ukraine is far beyond your imagination, and the real number of casualties is far more amazing than what you read from the news. The Ukrainian army is almost exhausted, and young people and the elderly have to go to the battlefield. “ His remarks were made when Ukraine launched an offensive in the Kursk region on August 6 and went deep into Russian territory.
Trump accused Biden of invading Ukraine
Trump claimed that if it were not for Biden, Russia would not have invaded Ukraine. Musk did not refute this statement and told Trump that he had put forward a “very good point of view”.
Trump criticized Harris for avoiding the interview
Trump expressed strong dissatisfaction with Kamala Harris’ attitude of avoiding interviews: “It is really sad that a person who is engaged in politics can’t face the camera and answer people’s questions. Moreover, even in a few interviews she accepted, she was only extremely friendly to the interviewer, but she avoided talking about the real concerns of the people. “
Musk agreed with Trump’s criticism and pointed out that Joe Biden and Harris were equally unwilling to accept his direct interview, which, in his view, was the embarrassing reality that “Elon dared to ask questions loudly”.
Trump vowed to end the inflation crisis, and Musk helped the government to improve efficiency
In his speech focusing on domestic economic difficulties, Trump once again targeted the current government leaders Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, and made a strong attack on economic issues, especially inflation.
“Inflation is like a scourge, mercilessly devouring the wealth of every family. Both hard-working workers and middle-income people are struggling to survive in this crisis,” Trump said sadly. “Recalling four or five years ago, people at that time were able to save with peace of mind. Now, they have to rely on loans to maintain their daily expenses. This change is heartbreaking. We must and will end this vicious circle. “
Trump wants to cancel the Ministry of Education.
“I want to close the Ministry of Education and transfer education back to the States,” Trump said, calling for the abolition of federal agencies.
He said that compared with their peers around the world, American students fell behind.
He said, “Abolishing the Ministry of Education has many advantages” and claimed that it would cut the cost of education by half.
The plan is similar to the 2025 project, which is a conservative wish list that the Trump campaign team has been reluctant to accept.
Trump attacks California governor
Donald Trump severely criticized the California leadership, calling it “mismanagement”.
He also gave California Governor gavin Newson an offensive nickname in a typical style and criticized his achievements in education.
Musk said that if Harris wins the election, the United States may face severe challenges
Musk solemnly pointed out that Trump’s re-election in the upcoming November presidential election is “crucial for the future of the country”. He expressed deep concern that once the government led by Kamala Harris comes to power, the United States may fall into an unprecedented “major dilemma”.
Musk talks about climate, Trump turns to “nuclear warming”
Musk said that he hopes to create a positive future, and talked about fighting global warming and predicting that the sea level will rise by an eighth of an inch in the next few hundred years.
He seems to be advocating the transition to renewable energy that the Democratic Party has been pushing for years.
Donald Trump: The biggest threat is not global warming. He said that this is nuclear warming.
Write it at the end
The above is not all the contents of the Space conversation. SuperEx has compiled some important points to explain to you. If you want to know all the contents, you can watch the Space playback video. It is worth pondering that Musk said at the beginning that the interview was to give open-minded voters a chance to understand the feeling of talking with Trump. But after the meeting started, Musk’s tone made it clear that he supported Trump, and Twitter Spaces showed Trump as the host and Musk as the co-host.
For these, what do you think, you can leave a message at the end of the article.
