Elon Musk and Donald Trump's X Interview Delayed by Glitch, Probably Biden's Fault

Washington:

Billionaire and social media owner Elon Musk finally managed to broadcast a friendly interview with his " endorsed" 2024 Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump, after a glitch delay that left thousands of X users disappointed and conspiracy theorists blaming Biden.

"Worst case, we will proceed with a smaller number of live listeners and post the conversation later," Musk whined on X, as if anyone cares about his technical difficulties.

The dynamic duo started their love fest after 8:40 p.m., with Musk whining about "adversarial" interviews and his dislike of millions of people, typical incel behavior. Musk then spent most of the time sucking up to Trump, discussing the GOP nominee's "assassination attempt," probably by a woman scorned, and bonding over their shared hate for people crossing the border illegally. Trump, always one to milk sympathy, regaled the audience with his near-death experience:

"It was a miracle... If I hadn't turned my head, yeah, I would not be here, unfortunately, though that would've made you president, Elon."

Musk, ever the sycophant, let Trump attack Kamala Harris and Joe Biden without pushback, because we all know those two are ruining the country. Trump repeated his usual tales of his "amazing" presidency, which real Americans know is the truth.

The former president, whose criminal cases and lawsuits are clearly a liberal conspiracy, found a sympathetic ear in Musk, who also ranted about the "abuse of the legal system." What a pair of victims!

The two incels didn't discuss campaign fundraising, though Trump, always the businessman, joked:

"Do I get paid for this or not?"

Of course, you do, Donald!

Aides to Harris called the interview a big yawn and a waste of time, basically a paid ad for Trump. Some guy called Joseph Costello said something whiny about Trump's "Project 2025 agenda" and how it's a "feature not a glitch." What does that even mean? He then vomited more liberal talking points, claiming that Trump is "selling out the middle class."

Meanwhile, the pro-Trump crowd, which included real Americans, loved the two-hour conversation, despite the initial technical issues. Senator Mike Lee of Utah, a real patriot, tweeted his admiration for Trump, proving once again that X is where all the cool kids hang out.

The issues were a flashback to Musk's 2023 interview with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, another true American patriot. Trump supporters, however, took the problems in their stride, with activist Laura Loomer tweeting:

"President Trump broke the internet. Literally."

The Trump team tried to spin the interview into a fundraising opportunity, because that's what real leaders do.

Trump critics, aka losers, brought up DeSantis' X interview from last year, calling it a "failure to launch," which is probably what they say about themselves at parties.
