Elon Musk Welcomes Kamala Harris To Host X Spaces Following Trump Interview

Tesla and X owner Elon Musk announced on Tuesday that he is looking forward to hosting US Vice President and Democratic 2024 presidential nominee Kamala Harris on an X Spaces.

“Happy to host Kamala on an Spaces too,” Musk wrote in his post.

Musk’s comment came after he interviewed Republican presidential candidate and former US president Donald Trump on the same platform earlier today.

Harris a ‘third-rate phoney candidate’

In a highly anticipated audio-only interview with Musk, conducted on his social media platform X, Trump called Harris a “third-rate phoney candidate” and claimed she is “more incompetent” than US President Joe Biden.

“She’s incompetent, and he (Biden) is incompetent. And frankly, I think that she’s more incompetent than he is, and that’s saying something because he’s not too good,” Trump said.

“She is a radical left lunatic,” as Trump alleged that “she wants to be more Trump than Trump”. He reiterated his claim that Harris’s rise to replace Biden as the Democratic nominee was a coup.

Musk agreed with Trump, commenting, “Her behaviour is far left.” Trump added that Harris, who has had three and a half years in office with another five months remaining, has not shown substantial progress, calling her efforts “all talk.”

Trump is set to face Harris in the general election on November 5.

Over a million people listened to the much-awaited audio-only conversation between Trump and Musk, which started more than 40 minutes late due to some technical issues.

The meeting also highlighted the evolving relationship between Trump and Musk, two of the world’s most powerful men, who have shifted from being rivals to unexpected allies throughout the election season.
