Musk Interviews Trump on Reinstated X Platform

Social Media Giant Makes Headlines with Controversial Guest

Trump Returns to Digital Stage After Ban

In a move that has sent shockwaves through the tech industry, Elon Musk, the CEO of X (formerly known as Twitter), will interview former President Donald Trump on Monday night on the social media platform.

Trump, who was banned from Twitter in January 2021 for his role in the Capitol insurrection, has been reinstated by Musk, who took over the company in October 2022. The decision has sparked controversy, with critics arguing that it legitimizes Trump's dangerous rhetoric and undermines the platform's credibility.

Musk, however, has defended his decision, saying that he believes in free speech and that Trump should be allowed to express his views on X. He has also reinstated other previously banned accounts, including that of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

The interview will be a major test for Musk's leadership and for X's reputation. It remains to be seen whether Trump will use the platform to spread misinformation or incite violence, or whether he will use it as a means of communicating with his supporters.
